We are pleased to announce the second release candidate for GHC 7.0.1: http://new-www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/7.0.1-rc2/ This includes the source tarball, installers for OS X and Windows, and bindists for amd64/Linux, i386/Linux, amd64/FreeBSD and i386/FreeBSD. Amongst the changes since RC 1 are: * -fglasgow-exts now gives a deprecated warning, and no longer enables GADTs or TypeFamilies. * The haskell98 packge is no longer automatically linked, although this often won't make a difference as --make is now enabled by default. Please test as much as possible; bugs are much cheaper if we find them before the release! Thanks Ian, on behalf of the GHC team
