* Re-export `augment` and `build` function from `GHC.List`
* Re-export the `IsList` typeclass from the new `GHC.IsList` module.
+ * There's a new special function ``withDict`` in ``GHC.Exts``: ::
+
+ withDict :: forall {rr :: RuntimeRep} cls meth (r :: TYPE rr). WithDict cls meth => meth -> (cls => r) -> r
+
+ where ``cls`` must be a class containing exactly one method, whose type
+ must be ``meth``.
+
+ This function converts ``meth`` to a type class dictionary.
+ It removes the need for ``unsafeCoerce`` in implementation of reflection
+ libraries. It should be used with care, because it can introduce
+ incoherent instances.
+
+ For example, the ``withTypeable`` function from the
+ ``Type.Reflection`` module can now be defined as: ::
+
+ withTypeable :: forall k (a :: k) rep (r :: TYPE rep). ()
+ => TypeRep a -> (Typeable a => r) -> r
+ withTypeable rep k = withDict @(Typeable a) rep k
+
+ Note that the explicit type application is required, as the call to
+ ``withDict`` would be ambiguous otherwise.
+
+ This replaces the old ``GHC.Exts.magicDict``, which required
+ an intermediate data type and was less reliable.
+
+ * `Data.Word.Word64` and `Data.Int.Int64` are now always represented by
+ `Word64#` and `Int64#`, respectively. Previously on 32-bit platforms these
+ were rather represented by `Word#` and `Int#`. See GHC #11953.
