 Fix bootstrapping with GHC 7.10.1

 Relying on CallStack being in GLASGOW_HASKELL >= 710 breaks
 bootstrappability with 7.10.1

 7.10.2 added the CallStack mechanism, and GHC already relies on this
 while being built. Unfortunately, it is enabled with "GLASGOW_HASKELL
 >= 710", which also applies to GHC 7.10.1, which does not have
 CallStack, and fails building the stage-1 compiler because the symbol
 is not found.

 This patch makes the CPP directive more strict, requiring **more than**
 7.10 instead of **at least**.
