Hello everyone,
The GHC team is pleased to announce the availability of GHC 8.4.2. The source distribution, binary distributions, and documentation for this release are available at
https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/8.4.2
This release is a bug-fix release, fixing numerous regressions and bugs present in GHC 8.4.1. These include:
* A regression resulting in some uses of `Control.Exception.evaluate` to be inappropriately optimised away (see #13930)
* A regression resulting in segmentation faults of programs compiled with profiling (#14705)
* A bug causing runtime system panics while running programs with retainer profiling (#14947)
* The configure scripts now accepts a `--disable-dtrace` option, again allowing GHC to be bootstrapped on FreeBSD (#15040)
* The version number of the `base` package has been bumped to 4.11.1.0 to reflect the addition of the `GHC.IO.FixIOException` type. This interface was added in 8.4.1 but the version bump was missed due to an oversight.
* Support for DWARF debug information has been significantly improved (#14894, #14779)
A more thorough list of the changes in this release can be found in the release notes,
https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/8.4.2/docs/html/users_guide/8.4.2-notes.h...
What about #15005? It is closed as fixed but not mentioned in the release notes. All the best, Wolfgang
