Austin: can you report this bug with the Phabricator people please.
For committers: don't use 'arc land' to land patches from others!
If this has happened to you in the past, could you please let me know. I am
soon updating the contributors list on
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/TeamGHC, and would like it to be
complete. These are the patches that I'm aware of that were misattributed
this year:
D600: Brian McKenna -> Erik de Castro Lopo
D971: Bernard Desmyter -> Thomas Miedema
D974: Zejun Wu -> Simon Marlow
#11209: John Paul Adrian Glaubitz -> Sergei Trofimovich
Thanks
