Well, of course I did :-)

but afaics the error occurs already when trying to compile the new
'primitive' by itself...

But you can easily reproduce w/o replacing the 'primitive' used for
building GHC HEAD, but simply by trying to build the relased
primitive-0.5.1.0 package with GHC HEAD via cabal:

  cabal update
  cabal install --ghc-option=-dcore-lint primitive-0.5.1.0
