HEAD still broken (Could not find module `Data.Map':)

Graphics/UI/GLUT/Menu.hs:28:7:

Could not find module `Data.Map':

it is a member of package containers-0.1, which is hidden

The GLUT package is shared with ghc-6.8. It was fixed to work with ghc-6.8 and 6.6 and 6.4. Unfortunately ghc-HEAD has not caught up yet with ghc-6.8 and still has old version numbers for it's base and other core packages. This means that the GLUT package (and several others) get mis-configured because they're expecting base-3.x not base-2.x. They do of course work with base-2.x but they expect base-2.x to be the monolithic base and only expect base-3.x to be the new slimmed down version. so confronted with a slimmed down base that is marked as version 2.x it all goes wrong. Because the GLUT package is shared with ghc-6.8 and ghc-HEAD we cannot really fix it to work with both (without insane hacks), the solution is for ghc-HEAD to catch up and use the right version numbers for its base package.

Now fixed.
