There seems to be a bit of a clash between ghc being a tool, and ghc being a toy. There need not be. Your works-for-me is great but it is meaningless to those of us who use ghc as a tool for larger projects.
This is not specific to GHC. Arch Linux, being a bleeding-edge Linux distribution, tends to prefer newer versions of software over more stable versions of software. I doubt that facet of Arch Linux will ever change, so perhaps you should reevaluate your choice of Linux distribution or avoid pacman/package updates for software whose stability and predictability is critical to you.
