Comment (by slyfox):

 I might have accidentally skipped something or
 didn't bother fixing in UNREG (but I think I've
 fixed all perf-unrelated breakages at least in master).

 Real fixes:

 * 104a66a461f4f89b8e5ad9c829923bb7ca8ceddb - add missing 'deRefStablePtr'
 symbol for ghci
 * 43f1b2ecd1960fa7377cf55a2b97c66059a701ef - fix C codegen to emit
 negavite constants properly
 * a93ab43ab5f40cadbedea2f6342b93c245e91434 - fix -fPIC passing
 * e18525fae273f4c1ad8d6cbe1dea4fc074cac721 - fix prim calls at least on
 unreg ia64

 Testsuite fixes (mostly disabled tests):

 * ff9f4ad38521e54c5284f9bf4599c3baaefeb228 - disable T7815 on NOSMP
 * fcdd58d2ddcfd8d420adbcb3f20c1d666bc834e6 - a workaround to disable
 warnings from gcc due to overrided functions
 * eb64be7b40b7f29144ebbf9c947e729535a8fd3d - disable memcpy asm code
 checking
 * 2fcb36e41f46f80f75e2f245a1a45457f0f7d6d2 - disable 'testwsdeque' on
 NOSMP
 * e1d77a1ae619efc4bfe7ce30d7c6b2031ed86f2f - add 32-bit case
