Remove GHC.Base.assert until I can figure out what happened
lazy :: a -> a
lazy x = x
+-- SLPJ: this was transferred from the TH branch
+-- and I've forgotten what it was for... so I'll
+-- comment it back out for now. It conflicts with
+-- 'assert' in GHC.Prim
-- Assertion function. This simply ignores its boolean argument.
-- The compiler may rewrite it to (assertError line)
-assert :: Bool -> a -> a
-assert pred r = r
+-- assert :: Bool -> a -> a
+-- assert pred r = r
-- constant function
const :: a -> b -> a
