Comment (by hsyl20):

 I don't think my patch caused this failure: T12227 doesn't even use the
 FFI.

 2756af87aebee769ffca959adc4b9dc607a49fdb is the patch adding the failing
 test in ghc-8.0 branch. If it is the first failing commit as @bgamari
 says, we should check patches from master that have not been cherry-picked
 into the ghc-8.0 branch (a priori committed in master before
 89a8be71a3715c948cebcb19ac81f84da0e6270e if it validates).
