The issues with the release artifacts have been sorted out. Note that
these are new artifacts built from
d0bab2e3419e49cdbb1201d4650572b57f33420c, which is the commit pointed to
by the ghc-8.8.3-release tag.

While we typically try hard to avoid changing artifacts after they are
announced, given how quickly this issue was caught we thought this was
the least bad option.

Again, my apologies for the confusion and thanks for the patience.

Cheers,

- Ben
