Aha, it sounds like you are being confused by terminology. When making
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/PackageReorg
we agreed on the term "core packages" (used interchangeably with
"core libraries") for what you appear to mean by "the base".

base is only one of the core packages, and fps^W^W^Wbytestring and
filepath could be others without being "in base" (meaning "in the base
package").


Thanks
Ian
