+    (description "Safe Haskell introduced the notion of safe and unsafe
+modules.  In order to make as many as possible modules ``safe'', the
+well-known unsafe functions were moved to distinguished modules.  This
+makes it hard to write packages that work with both old and new versions
+of GHC.  This package provides a single module System.Unsafe that
+exports the unsafe functions from the base package.  It provides them in
+a style ready for qualification, that is, you should import them by
+@code{import qualified System.Unsafe as Unsafe}.")
