Note that Hugs currently only allows one module at startup so
Prelude.hs cannot have any imports.

I removed this restriction very early in the development of STG-Hugs
and hope to sort through the commit log (on the Yale CVS tree, I
suspect) soon to find the necessary changes and apply them to Classic
Hugs.  (The changes are small but a little tricky.)
