Should I remove hs-haskell-src-exts-1.7?

Hi there,

I'm currently writing an update for yi. For this I had to create a port for hs-derive.
I hate to create ports for outdated dependencies so much that if I have to really do it,
I will try to create it for the less outdated version I can link against.

That's why I patched hs-derive to work with hs-haskell-src-exts-1.7, with which compilation
does not fail. Unfortunately, this little trick causes a segfault when building yi's
vty frontend. So hs-derive really needs hs-haskell-src-exts-1.6 and I created 1.7's port for
nothing.

I committed it a couple of days ago, so what should I do with it? I'd like to nuke it and
pretend it never happened.

Regards,
Anthony.

P.S. : With this nasty segfault sorted out, I think yi's upgrade will be good to go very soon =)
