[ANNOUNCE] GHC 8.2.2 release candidate 1

[Boespflug, Mathieu]

Hi Ben,

https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13702 break projects like
sparkle and others, since they crucially rely on PIE, in this case to
dynamically load executables in the JVM. It looks like you committed a
fix for this in HEAD. Any chance you could backport this to the GHC
8.2 branch?

Thanks,
