Last call for 7.8.4

Hello *, I've just pushed a final round of patches to the 7.8 branch, including the notorious Cabal fix for the -fPIC bug that was discussed earlier in the week, and a handful of other bugfixes for ARM among other things (/cc Joachim :) I am planning on making the final 7.8.4 release this week; barring any pending minor issues (e.g. build wibbles) in the tree (which I do not think should be needed), the only thing I will commit is A) release notes and B) the version number changes. There will not likely be a 7.8.4-rc2, so this is a last call for any bugs you'd like to see fixed. I may have missed something -- Regards, Austin Seipp, Haskell Consultant Well-Typed LLP, http://www.well-typed.com/

I will make the actual cabal 1.18 release today as the RCs looked good.

Please also consider https://phabricator.haskell.org/D554 Fixes a small but annoying bug with bash completion for 7.8. Should be very low risk as it only affects the --show-options flag.
