SafeHaskell introduced the notion of safe and unsafe modules.
In order to make as many as possible modules "safe",
the well-known unsafe functions were moved to distinguished modules.
This makes it hard to write packages that work
with both old and new versions of GHC.
This package provides a single module System.Unsafe
that exports the unsafe functions from the base package.
It provides them in a style ready for qualification,
that is, you should import them by
import qualified System.Unsafe as Unsafe
The package also contains a script called rename-unsafe.sh.
It replaces all occurrences of the original identifiers
with the qualified identifiers from this package.
You still have to adapt the import commands.
It uses the darcs-replace-rec script from the darcs-scripts package.
