All right. 
ghc-6.4 has been tested with Dumatel.
And ghc-6.4 was announced as very new. So, I think, 6.4 branch needs 
testing with DoCon (which has much more functionality).

Meanwhile, I shall try to port DoCon and Dumatel applications to 
ghc-CVS-current.
Then, I shall wait for the first official version 
("ghc-after-6.4-adequate") which would treats the above features 
as needed, and do the above two releases for this version.
