Hi folks,

the current Git version of "release-16.09" has now the exact same Haskell
infrastructure as 'master', i.e. it's based on LTS Haskell 7.14 and it
includes the latest GHC:

    $ git describe
    16.09-806-g2ad30bde82

    $ nix-shell -p haskell.compiler.ghc802 --run "ghc --version"
    The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 8.0.2

    $ nix-shell -p stack --run "stack --numeric-version"
    1.3.2

    $ nix-shell -p cabal-install --run "cabal --version"
    cabal-install version 1.24.0.2
    compiled using version 1.24.2.0 of the Cabal library

Enjoy,
Peter
