I have an in-flight patch, see the Phabricator. However, applying the change to HEAD is blocked by https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/2638 since there are some Cabal changes, which necessitate updating to Cabal head. Cabal maintainers have expressed interest in this being merged into 7.10. To do this, we first have to merge the Cabal change into the 7.10 branch of Cabal, and apply the differential to GHC 7.10. (We shouldn't be blocked by the Cabal HEAD changes as those are not on the 7.10 branch.) If 7.10 release managers agree to let this patch in I volunteer to coordinate the changes. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10479 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
