Candidates for explicit inclusion in 2009.2.0.1

Package Ticket Result
Library/editline #44 YES

Note: we would not normally add packages in a minor release. editline is an exception because it was a core library with GHC-6.10.1 and 6.10.2 but was removed with 6.10.3 and we have decided to include GHC-6.10.3.
