The first primary reason is technical: haskell-src-exts 1.14 revamps the Extension datatype, among other things to allow turning extensions on and off (similar to what Cabal allows). We also introduce the concept of a Language, separate from a set of extensions. This is the only backwards-incompatible change in this release.
Heads-up: as was pointed out to me, the above is not true. The constructors of the Tuple type have also changed, which means greater risks for breakage. Proceed with this in mind. Cheers, Niklas
