I don't find fromInt in the haskore source.  I find fromInteger.
Should I change fromInteger to fromIntegral?  Or is fromIntegral a
typo and haskore has already been updated?

My download of haskore came with the IOExtensions module shown in an
earlier message in that thread, in a separate directory (intended for
ghc users).  I copied it into Haskore/Src.  It imports IOExts which is
not found.  So I then made the changes indicated in msg16664 (plus
removed the offending import).  In this case I got the error
'Undefined variable "bracket"', so I added the import you note above,
and now Iget the error 'Unknown entity "bracket" imported from module
"Control.Concurrent"'.

Any suggestions?
