3.0.1 has just appeared, and contains 2 months worth of critical
bug fixes over 3.0.  One thing I know is that 3.0 could not compile
KDE correctly due to bugs in C++ multiple inheritance, whereas
3.0.1 can.  Not that that has anything much to do with the stuff
GHC feeds it.  I'm kind-of assuming that 3.0.1 is the first=20
of the 3.X series which is really suitable for widespread use.
