ANNOUNCE: GHC 7.10.2 Release Candidate 2

We are pleased to announce the first release candidate for GHC 7.10.2: https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/7.10.2-rc2 https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/7.10.2-rc2/docs/html/ This includes the source tarball and bindists for Windows, and Debian Linux. FreeBSD, OS X and Solaris binaries will follow soon. These binaries and tarballs have an accompanying SHA256SUMS file signed by my GPG key id (0x3B58D86F). We plan to make the 7.10.2 final release in a week or two - so please test as much as possible; bugs are much cheaper if we find them before the release! -- Regards, Austin Seipp, Haskell Consultant Well-Typed LLP, http://www.well-typed.com/

We are pleased to announce the first release candidate for GHC 7.10.2:
I found out earlier today that Template Haskell support for the prim and javascript calling conventions (new in 7.10) was still missing a few cases, mainly breaking JS imports by treating/checking them as C identifiers. Trac #10638 (attached patch backported to 7.10), Phab D1070 (master). Also see: https://github.com/ghcjs/ghcjs/issues/364 I hope it's still in time to make it into the final. luite
