  * Changed postEvent last argument from "nat from" to "StgWord64 other".
  Ignore-this: b7991c781c09d7a631230740cd8b1fe6
  StgWord64 other better represents this argument since it can be used as
  any particular data, thus "other" and not the "from" capability as it was
  previously strictly used.  Also, StgWord64 is normally larger than type
  nat to allow for larger data to be passed through the "other" argument.

    M ./rts/eventlog/EventLog.c -1 +1
    M ./rts/eventlog/EventLog.h -4 +4
