Well you could say

| $(
|     if ghcVersion >= read "6.5"
|        then
|              [d|
|                 blah blah blah
|                 blah $(dyn "foo") blah
|                 blah $(dyn "wombat") blah
|                 |]

which seems better to me.  We did also consider %x as shorthand for
$(dyn "x").


I agree about import splices, but I'm less convinced about this one,
since you can always get around it.
