Make these tests use four-space indentation, and ensure that
each module is imported on its own line. (I intend to use the latter
to figure out which subdirectories' tests can be executed in parallel.)
These changes usually move code to different lines. For the debugger tests,
specify the new line numbers in .inp files and expect them in .exp files.

Generate exceptions rather than program aborts for domain errors
and out of bounds array accesses.
Improve the handling of the arithmetic functions.
library/float.m:
library/int.m:
compiler/builtin_ops.m:
Handle division by zero with an exception rather than a
program abort.
Add int__unchecked_quotient and float__unchecked_quotient,
which don't check for division by zero.
Remove reverse modes of the arithmetic functions in float.m.
Richard O'Keefe pointed out a while ago that they don't work
because of rounding errors.
Remove the long obsolete `int__builtin_*' and
`float__builtin_float_*' predicates.
library/math.m:
library/array.m:
Generate exceptions rather than program aborts.
The bounds and domain checks are now implemented in
Mercury, so they do not need to be duplicated for each
target language.
library/exception.m:
Remove predicate throw_string/1, which was used to throw
exceptions from array.m across the C interface, which would
not work in LLDS grades.

Add support for nested modules.
- module names may themselves be module-qualified
- modules may contain `:- include_module' declarations
which name sub-modules
- a sub-module has access to all the declarations in the
parent module (including its implementation section).
This support is not yet complete; see the BUGS and LIMITATIONS below.
LIMITATIONS
- source file names must match module names
(just as they did previously)
- mmc doesn't allow path names on the command line any more
(e.g. `mmc --make-int ../library/foo.m').
- import_module declarations must use the fully-qualified module name
- module qualifiers must use the fully-qualified module name
- no support for root-qualified module names
(e.g. `:parent:child' instead of `parent:child').
- modules may not be physically nested (only logical nesting, via
`include_module').
BUGS
- doesn't check that the parent module is imported/used before allowing
import/use of its sub-modules.
- doesn't check that there is an include_module declaration in the
parent for each module claiming to be a child of that parent
- privacy of private modules is not enforced
-------------------
NEWS:
Mention that we support nested modules.
library/ops.m:
library/nc_builtin.nl:
library/sp_builtin.nl:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
Add `include_module' as a new prefix operator.
Change the associativity of `:' from xfy to yfx
(since this made parsing module qualifiers slightly easier).
compiler/prog_data.m:
Add new `include_module' declaration.
Change the `module_name' and `module_specifier' types
from strings to sym_names, so that module names can
themselves be module qualified.
compiler/modules.m:
Add predicates module_name_to_file_name/2 and
file_name_to_module_name/2.
Lots of changes to handle parent module dependencies,
to create parent interface (`.int0') files, to read them in,
to output correct dependencies information for them to the
`.d' and `.dep' files, etc.
Rewrite a lot of the code to improve the readability
(add comments, use subroutines, better variable names).
Also fix a couple of bugs:
- generate_dependencies was using the transitive implementation
dependencies rather than the transitive interface dependencies
to compute the `.int3' dependencies when writing `.d' files
(this bug was introduced during crs's changes to support
`.trans_opt' files)
- when creating the `.int' file, it was reading in the
interfaces for modules imported in the implementation section,
not just those in the interface section.
This meant that the compiler missed a lot of errors.
library/graph.m:
library/lexer.m:
library/term.m:
library/term_io.m:
library/varset.m:
compiler/*.m:
Add `:- import_module' declarations to the interface needed
by declarations in the interface. (The previous version
of the compiler did not detect these missing interface imports,
due to the above-mentioned bug in modules.m.)
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
compiler/intermod.m:
Change mercury_compile__maybe_grab_optfiles and
intermod__grab_optfiles so that they grab the opt files for
parent modules as well as the ones for imported modules.
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
Minor changes to handle parent module dependencies.
(Also improve the wording of the warning about trans-opt
dependencies.)
compiler/make_hlds.m:
compiler/module_qual.m:
Ignore `:- include_module' declarations.
compiler/module_qual.m:
A couple of small changes to handle nested module names.
compiler/prog_out.m:
compiler/prog_util.m:
Add new predicates string_to_sym_name/3 (prog_util.m) and
sym_name_to_string/{2,3} (prog_out.m).
compiler/*.m:
Replace many occurrences of `string' with `module_name'.
Change code that prints out module names or converts
them to strings or filenames to handle the fact that
module names are now sym_names intead of strings.
Also change a few places (e.g. in intermod.m, hlds_module.m)
where the code assumed that any qualified symbol was
fully-qualified.
compiler/prog_io.m:
compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
Move sym_name_and_args/3, parse_qualified_term/4 and
parse_qualified_term/5 preds from prog_io_goal.m to prog_io.m,
since they are very similar to the parse_symbol_name/2 predicate
already in prog_io.m. Rewrite these predicates, both
to improve maintainability, and to handle the newly
allowed syntax (module-qualified module names).
Rename parse_qualified_term/5 as `parse_implicit_qualified_term'.
compiler/prog_io.m:
Rewrite the handling of `:- module' and `:- end_module'
declarations, so that it can handle nested modules.
Add code to parse `include_module' declarations.
compiler/prog_util.m:
compiler/*.m:
Add new predicates mercury_public_builtin_module/1 and
mercury_private_builtin_module/1 in prog_util.m.
Change most of the hard-coded occurrences of "mercury_builtin"
to call mercury_private_builtin_module/1 or
mercury_public_builtin_module/1 or both.
compiler/llds_out.m:
Add llds_out__sym_name_mangle/2, for mangling module names.
compiler/special_pred.m:
compiler/mode_util.m:
compiler/clause_to_proc.m:
compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
compiler/lambda.m:
compiler/polymorphism.m:
Move the predicates in_mode/1, out_mode/1, and uo_mode/1
from special_pred.m to mode_util.m, and change various
hard-coded definitions to instead call these predicates.
compiler/polymorphism.m:
Ensure that the type names `type_info' and `typeclass_info' are
module-qualified in the generated code. This avoids a problem
where the code generated by polymorphism.m was not considered
type-correct, due to the type `type_info' not matching
`mercury_builtin:type_info'.
compiler/check_typeclass.m:
Simplify the code for check_instance_pred and
get_matching_instance_pred_ids.
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
compiler/modules.m:
Disallow directory names in command-line arguments.
compiler/options.m:
compiler/handle_options.m:
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
compiler/modules.m:
Add a `--make-private-interface' option.
The private interface file `<module>.int0' contains
all the declarations in the module; it is used for
compiling sub-modules.
scripts/Mmake.rules:
scripts/Mmake.vars.in:
Add support for creating `.int0' and `.date0' files
by invoking mmc with `--make-private-interface'.
doc/user_guide.texi:
Document `--make-private-interface' and the `.int0'
and `.date0' file extensions.
doc/reference_manual.texi:
Document nested modules.
util/mdemangle.c:
profiler/demangle.m:
Demangle names with multiple module qualifiers.

tests/general/string_format_test.m:
tests/general/string_format_test.exp:
tests/general/string__format_test.m:
tests/general/string__format_test.exp:
tests/general/.cvsignore:
Change the `:- module string__format_test' declaration in
`string__format_test.m' to `:- module string_format_test',
because with the original declaration the `__' was taken
as a module qualifier, which lead to an error message.
Hence rename the file accordingly, to avoid the warning
about file name not matching module name.
tests/invalid/Mmakefile:
tests/invalid/missing_interface_import.m:
tests/invalid/missing_interface_import.err_exp:
Regression test to check that the compiler reports
errors for missing `import_module' in the interface section.
tests/invalid/*.err_exp:
tests/warnings/unused_args_test.exp:
tests/warnings/unused_import.exp:
Update the expected diagnostics output for the test cases to
reflect a few minor changes to the warning messages.
