Comment (by tuncer):

 @bgamari, I've forward-ported the ACK'ed patches and put them in
 https://github.com/ghc/ghc/pull/53 because I didn't know enough
 arcanist/phab to preserve authorship and avoid a cumulative single diff,
 and I wanted this to get out sooner than later. I used Joachim as the git-
 author where I was certain and it's possible that the last two patches can
 be attributed to Joachim as well, but without digging in Debian's repos
 and trackers I couldn't say that with certainty. If that's the case, I can
 rewrite the commits, or feel free to do it when you merge.
