I see, thanks. That is actually a very welcome feature; I have in the
past attempted to use modules as first-class values, and found the lack
thereof a bit disappointing, as it "breaks the symmetry" between values
and modules.
Anyway, 3.12 is looking interesting -- are there any other features we
should be aware of? (I'm hoping GADTs will be in the pipeline eventually...)
Cheers,
Dario Teixeira
