I haven't actually run it yet, but from building it the only major thing I noticed so far is:

- Hadrian requires 'directory' newer than both current ghc-9.8 and ghc-9.10 😢 (as new as 9.12) - I would expect hadrian in 9.6 to be buildable with 9.6's 'directory', etc.

I can probably workaround it for Fedora (a bit tedious) but it feels excessive: the overall trend that hadrian is getting harder and harder to build without cabal-install in particular.

Thanks Luite,

I want to try to build the RC at least - just noting the RC version number is not ideal (since 9.6.7.20250131 > 9.6.7 - we don't really have a great versioning scheme for snapshots...)

Cheers, Jens
