well, the version of vector we use is fixed via git submodules. So in a
sense, GHC contains vector, and if someone bumps the vector version via
a git commit, this commit has an effect on our benchmarks – not much
difference to other commits changing GHC code.

Also note that nofib depends on base and the Prelude. Again, not much
difference.

Greetings,
Joachim
