Only if it builds and passes tests across all ten commits. Yes, obviously. I have never worked anywhere where breaking commits were allowed, and I did not intend to suggest that breaking commits were a Good Idea or useful. They emphatically aren't.
The point is, this only applies once it's in the ghc repo. Works in progress may well have such commits as long as they are cleaned up on pushing --- which is why you would squash commits together losing intermediate history, which is what started this thread.
