To answer the original question, 7.10 is done; there will not be a
7.10.4. If you find bugs in 7.10 and can't test them in 8.0, you can
still file them. Reporting bugs in pre-7.10 versions that can't be
reproduced in more recent versions is not likely to be useful.

I'm getting an "internal error: evacuate: strange closure type" in GHC 7.10.3. Should I report it? Would it even do any good? It doesn't seem there is any more development on the 7.10 branch anymore. If it is still being developed, should I try updating my GHC to a more recent build of 7.10.3?
Looking at the core dump file, it appears to be a problem in the garbage collector. I've done a bit of work trying get around the bug, including using -dcore-lint and -O0, and updating my dependency libraries, and I can still reproduce the issue very regularly in my own environment by calling a single method in my code base, either in GHCi or in a compiled binary test program.
