Perhaps a patchlevel-only release would be the right thing. But I'm not sure

will find it...

This should definitely go into pl1.

Hmmm, older GHCs don't have this option IIRC.

Oh, well... The old libraries are a moving (and sometimes vanishing) target
nowadays. :-P Could you try the following patch and tell me if it works for you?
