[Nix-dev] yesd doesn't build with most recent ghc (zlib not finding .so in ghci/template haskell)

[Andres Loeh]

Hi Marc.

This is a bug in ghc-7.2.*
(http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/5709). It's fixed in
ghc-7.4.*.
I don't think any version of ghc-7.2.* will ever become the default
version in a platform and/or nixpkgs.
Therefore, I'm not very motivated to patch ghc.

Cheers,
  Andres
