[ANNOUNCE] GHC 8.6.5 is now available
by Ben Gamari 03 May '19

Hello everyone, The GHC team is proud to announce the release of GHC 8.6.5. The source distribution, binary distributions, and documentation are available at https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/8.6.5 Release notes are also available [1]. This release fixes a handful of issues with 8.6.4: - Binary distributions once again ship with Haddock documentation including syntax highlighted source of core libraries (#16445) - A build system issue where use of GCC with `-flto` broke `configure` was fixed (#16440) - An bug affecting Windows platforms wherein XMM register values could be mangled when entering STG has been fixed (#16514) - Several Windows packaging issues resulting from the recent CI rework. (#16408, #16398, #16516) Do note that due to linking issues (see #15934) profiling will be rather unreliable on Windows. This will be fixed in 8.8.1. As always, if anything looks amiss do let us know. Happy compiling! Cheers, - Ben [1] http://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/8.6.5/docs/html/users_guide/8.6.5-notes.h…
