Comment (by snoyberg):

 Herbert asked me to weigh in with some data from Stackage builds. Here's
 what I wrote to him:

 I have a Stackage build running on my system right now in the testing
 phase, so I have access to all of the log files. This is a Stackage 7.8.3
 + Haskell Platform build, so it uses a few less packages than the normal
 7.8 and has a few older packages (I can test on 7.8 w/o HP as well if it
 would be useful). Of 651 packages built in this run, only two of the logs
 mentioned the string OldTypeable. type-eq (version 0.4.2) certainly has
 the deprecation warning in many places. haskell-names mentions OldTypeable
 as well, but it seems to simply be dealing with all of the files in base,
 not a real dependency.

 If any other data from Stackage would be useful, let me know.
