[Rewrite the documentation for forkOS again
Simon Marlow <marlowsd@gmail.com>**20080818132856
 Try to make it clearer that forkOS is only necessary when calling
 foreing libraries that use thread-local state, and it has nothing to
 do with scheduling behaviour between Haskell threads.  I also added
 something about the performance impact of forkOS, and mentioned that
 the main thread is a bound thread.

Ross Paterson <ross@soi.city.ac.uk>**20080812124912
 
 Move everything but catches/Handler into a new internal module.
 This was needed to get the new exceptions working with Hugs, because Hugs
 has the constraint that all Haskell 98 library modules, and everything
 they include, must be Haskell 98.  This also involves a different
 representation of SomeException for Hugs, so that type is exported
 opaquely for Hugs.  Then Control.Exception.Base is Haskell 98 as far as
 Hugs is concerned, but Control.Exception needs the extensions turned on.
 
 Control.Exception re-exports everything from Control.Exception.Base
 except the functions used by the GHC runtime.

 Normally you either want to:
 * only catch exceptions in a certain part of the hierarchy, e.g.
   "file not found", in which case you should only catch exceptions
   of the appropriate type,
 or
 * you want to do some cleanup when an exception happens, and then rethrow
   the exception, in which case you should use onException, or one of the
   bracketing functions.

[FIX part of #2301
Simon Marlow <marlowsd@gmail.com>**20080709094437
   
 Control-C now causes the new exception (AsyncException UserInterrupt)
 to be raised in the main thread.  The signal handler is set up by
 GHC.TopHandler.runMainIO, and can be overriden in the usual way by
 installing a new signal handler.  The advantage is that now all
 programs will get a chance to clean up on ^C.
 
 When UserInterrupt is caught by the topmost handler, we now exit the
 program via kill(getpid(),SIGINT), which tells the parent process that
 we exited as a result of ^C, so the parent can take appropriate action
 (it might want to exit too, for example).
 
 One subtlety is that we have to use a weak reference to the ThreadId
 for the main thread, so that the signal handler doesn't prevent the
 main thread from being subject to deadlock detection.

 Now in -threaded mode, instead of just making a blocking call to
 read(), we call select() first to make sure the read() won't block,
 and if it would block, then we use threadWaitRead.
 
 The idea is that the current thread must be interruptible while it
 blocks.  This is a little slower than before, but the overhead only
 applies to blocking Handles (stdin/stdout/stderr, and those created by
 System.Process).
