    99  * ExplicitCallStack - read this to get an overview of the idea 
    1010  * [http://ghcmutterings.wordpress.com/2008/12/04/explicit-stack-traces/ Blog post giving an overview] 
    11   * [http://www.zonetora.co.uk/NonBlog/explicitCallStack.tgz The GHC patch] 
     11  * [http://code.haskell.org/explicitCallStackPaper/ Darcs repository with paper sources and patches] 
     12  * [http://pubs.doc.ic.ac.uk/finding-the-needle/ Paper describing the work submitted to Haskell Symposium 2009]

     144  * {{{-fds-simple}}} which causes the desugarer to massivly simplify how it translates mutually recursive functions with typeclass/type parameter arguments.

    143146=== Annotations === 
    144147 
    … …  
    199202{{{StripSrrcLocNote}}} that removes all these notes again.  This is used in e.g. 
    200203desugaring {{{RULES}}} to make sure the patterns don't get clobbered. 
     204 
     205However this is a bit messy.  It could be better to add an explicit phase in the pipeline which goes 
     206 
     207HSSyn --desugarer--> Expr SrcLocAnnotatedVar --passes that safely work with src locs--> Expr SrcLocAnnotatedVar --strip anns--> CoreExpr --rest of pipeline--> ... 
     208 
     209Alternatively, HPC works fine on HSSyn, maybe that'd be a better target for this work.

    … …  
    317326There are several open problems and incomplete corners in the implementation

    319 Some are mentioned here, they are elaborated on more fully in the draft paper on 
    320 this work which is TODOTODO.

    345353Type classes provide many interesting problems; some theoretical, some pragmatic 
    346 - TODO: I have a section outlining some approaches in a draft paper that will be 
    347 linked from here..
