[...] This is a known issue; cpphs-1.18.6 would actually work with GHC 7.10/base-4.8, but it depends on polyparse, but there isn't yet a polyparse version compatible w/ base-4.8 (due to AMP) on Hackage[1] Otoh, cpphs-1.13 is selected even though Hackage shows that it has a constraint `base <4.8`. However, that's rather a bug in Hackage, as the `.cabal` file is actually invalid, as it has the `build-depends` at the wrong level. So effectively it has no build-depends line at all, so cabal-install is led to believe that it works w/o any build-deps at all.. I did file an issue about that[3] [1]: Coincidentally, I sent Malcolm a AMP-compatibility patch for polyparse just earlier today...

Only problem remaining is compiling with -fllvm and running resulting executable Other problems below have now been solved: - cpphs - new version resolves problem - cabal install vector - upgrade to gcc (Homebrew gcc 4.9.2_1) 4.9.2 solves problem On Thu, Jan 1, 2015 at 9:58 AM, George Colpitts wrote:

We are pleased to announce the first release candidate for GHC 7.10.1:

https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/7.10.1-rc1/

This includes the source tarball and bindists for 64bit/32bit Linux and Windows. Binary builds for other platforms will be available shortly. (CentOS 6.5 binaries are not available at this time like they were for 7.8.x). These binaries and tarballs have an accompanying SHA256SUMS file signed by my GPG key id (0x3B58D86F).

We plan to make the 7.10.1 release sometime in February of 2015. We expect another RC to occur during January of 2015.

Please test as much as possible; bugs are much cheaper if we find them before the release!
