If this "compiler98" is the one that is shared between yhc and nhc98  
repos, then it certainly is a full working compiler for Haskell'98 +  
pattern-guards + existential types + FFI + hierarchical modules.   
Indeed, my automated builds of nhc98 still successfully build this  
compiler every night.  (I wish the same could be said for the the base  
library, which has recently broken again - stick to Haskell'98 I say!)
