ghc-prim 0.5.1.1 not on Hackage

Hmm I think this one belongs on the ghc trac.

The version doesn't seem to exist in master either
https://github.com/ghc/ghc/commits/master/libraries/ghc-prim/ghc-prim.cabal
and only exists in the 8.2 branch.

The commit and bug report it references #14171 doesn't seem to have any
code changes to ghc-prim (that I can see). So I'm not sure why this was
bumped.

So this version is a bit of a mystery..
