The first phase of this tidyup is focussed on the header files, and in
particular making sure we are exposinng publicly exactly what we need
to, and no more.
- Rts.h now includes everything that the RTS exposes publicly,
rather than a random subset of it.
- Most of the public header files have moved into subdirectories, and
many of them have been renamed. But clients should not need to
include any of the other headers directly, just #include the main
public headers: Rts.h, HsFFI.h, RtsAPI.h.
- All the headers needed for via-C compilation have moved into the
stg subdirectory, which is self-contained. Most of the headers for
the rest of the RTS APIs have moved into the rts subdirectory.
- I left MachDeps.h where it is, because it is so widely used in
Haskell code.
- I left a deprecated stub for RtsFlags.h in place. The flag
structures are now exposed by Rts.h.
- Various internal APIs are no longer exposed by public header files.
- Various bits of dead code and declarations have been removed
- More gcc warnings are turned on, and the RTS code is more
warning-clean.
- More source files #include "PosixSource.h", and hence only use
standard POSIX (1003.1c-1995) interfaces.
There is a lot more tidying up still to do, this is just the first
pass. I also intend to standardise the names for external RTS APIs
(e.g use the rts_ prefix consistently), and declare the internal APIs
as hidden for shared libraries.

* The old Reg type is now split into VirtualReg and RealReg.
* For the graph coloring allocator, the type of the register graph
is now (Graph VirtualReg RegClass RealReg), which shows that it colors
in nodes representing virtual regs with colors representing real regs.
(as was intended)
* RealReg contains two contructors, RealRegSingle and RealRegPair,
where RealRegPair is used to represent a SPARC double reg
constructed from two single precision FP regs.
* On SPARC we can now allocate double regs into an arbitrary register
pair, instead of reserving some reg ranges to only hold float/double values.

This fixes the out of memory errors we were getting on sparc
after the following patch:

* Instead of a separate context-switch flag, set HpLim to zero
Ignore-this: 6c5bbe1ce2c5ef551efe98f288483b0
This reduces the latency between a context-switch being triggered and
the thread returning to the scheduler, which in turn should reduce the
cost of the GC barrier when there are many cores.

This reduces the latency between a context-switch being triggered and
the thread returning to the scheduler, which in turn should reduce the
cost of the GC barrier when there are many cores.
We still retain the old context_switch flag which is checked at the
end of each block of allocation. The idea is that setting HpLim may
fail if the the target thread is modifying HpLim at the same time; the
context_switch flag is a fallback. It also allows us to "context
switch soon" without forcing an immediate switch, which can be costly.

Most of the other users of the fptools build system have migrated to
Cabal, and with the move to darcs we can now flatten the source tree
without losing history, so here goes.
The main change is that the ghc/ subdir is gone, and most of what it
contained is now at the top level. The build system now makes no
pretense at being multi-project, it is just the GHC build system.
No doubt this will break many things, and there will be a period of
instability while we fix the dependencies. A straightforward build
should work, but I haven't yet fixed binary/source distributions.
Changes to the Building Guide will follow, too.
