I don't know... there was a bit of a thread on cvs-ghc about what should 
be named what... all the functions are pretty simple and I don't feel 
qualified to tell GHC exactly what to include! (well, I could collect 
all the feedback if I wasn't so busy with school at the moment.  And 
then, if we rename anything, checking that users like Haddock don't 
break... hmm)
