 Previously, :b Prelude would show the things exported by Prelude. Now, it
 emits the mysterious error message:

 {{{
 module 'Prelude' is not interpreted
 }}}

 I am told that this is because it is GHCi is invoking :break instead of
 :browse. Shouldn't this result in GHCi complaining that :b is ambiguous? I
 also think :b should be explicitly defined as an alias for :browse.
