- Adapted the package to work with GHC 6.12
- Plugins that depend on the old base3 are currently
not correctly loaded as the plugin loaded misses
the dependence on syb (leading to unresolved symbols)
- Cleaned up most of the testsuite (there are still
some outstanding failures, of which only one
demonstrates a bug in the plugins library as far
as I can see — see previous bullet point)
- Cleaned out a little cruft (but more could be done)
This is still *very* kludgey, and it needs lots of work which I'm not
entirely prepared for, seeing as I really don't know anything about
the ghc-api and how things are supposed to fit together. It is quite
conceivable that the code could be simplified much further by someone who
actually understands the ghc-api, and there may be bugs related to the fact
that I don't actually know what some things do. However, this builds
and does appear to work. Most of the testsuite is passing.
