It is best only only allow versions that are known to compile.<br>
Breaking changes in `base` might break the build otherwise.<br>
In this case, as no other changes are needed, we don't need<br>
a new release of `array`. A hackage revision of array-0.5.8.0,<br>
bumping the base bound to allow base-4.21 will be sufficient.<br>
<br>
Along with this, I would appreciate if a commit bumping the bound<br>
in the cabal file was also pushed to the repository, with an<br>
appropriate tag like 0.5.8.0-r2 (as there already seems to be<br>
an r1 revision).<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
