Fwiw, I did go over the changes in base-4.7.0.0 when I compiled the changelog to check whether the major bump was justified; but since a couple of deprecated functions where removed, several new typeclass instances were added (however, this isn't a justification anymore), the rather disruptive Typeable change occured, as well as the PrimBool changes (which may leak into the API exposed by base) I believed it was well justified.
I wasn't aware there was a more detailed changelog. Thanks for pointing it out. I just wanted to make sure we're all on the same page here.
Oh, and btw, here's also a somewhat older API delta (which is only as accurate as the hoogle txt files generated -- i.e. take it with a grain of salt) I generated some time ago: https://gist.github.com/hvr/6648575
