This package provides compatibility with the modules of Haskell 98 and the FFI addendum, by means of wrappers around modules from the @base@ package (which in many cases have additional features). However @Prelude@, @Numeric@ and @Foreign@ are provided directly by the @base@ package. The modules of this package are documented in the /Revised Haskell 98 Report/, at <http://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/>, and the /Haskell 98 Foreign Function Interface/ addendum, at <http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~chak/haskell/ffi/>.
