Hey David, i'm looking at the git history andit doesn't seem to have any commits between 8.4.3 and 8.4.4 related to the dataToTag issue does any haskell code in the while trigger the bug on 8.4 series? On Sun, Oct 21, 2018 at 11:06 AM David Feuer wrote:

The GHC team is pleased to announce the availability of GHC 8.4.4

Thank you

As always, the full release notes can be found in the users guide,

https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/8.4.4/docs/html/users_guide/8.4.4-notes.h...

I think this base text is out of date, and could be dropped, right?

Indeed it is.

I see that stm was also bumped: though it is not listed in

...

https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/8.4.4/docs/html/users_guide/8.4.4-notes.h...

Also true. However, in my mind this isn't nearly as significant as the `text` bump, which affects many users and fixes extremely bad misbehavior.

Thanks for noticing these!

Cheers
