Thanks very much Ross for doing this survey. We probably should send an announcement on to the haskell or haskell-cafe list aimed at package maintainers with this info and the info on how to update to enable compatibility with 6.6 and 6.8. We should probably include the standard symptom, ie the build message about missing modules / hidden packages.

Was this testing the latest version of each package? I updated the zlib and bzlib packages on hackage to work with 6.8.1 the other day. Maybe it's missing header files rather than package version / configuration failures. Duncan
