Comment(by bos):

 Couple of comments.

 1. Debian packagers shouldn't be building stuff against a new glibc/kernel
 and then expect it to work against an older one. That's just sloppy
 practice. If they'd been building GHC against 2.6.26 or older and an
 appropriate glibc, this wouldn't occur.

 2. It is in fact fine to use epoll_create followed by ioctl, instead of
 epoll_create1.
