Comment:

 This is correct. The GLASGOW_HASKELL variable reflects the major & minor
 number, it does not include the revision number.

 e.g GHC is versioned in the standard three number system of
 `major.minor.revision`.

 {{{
 6.12.3 => 612
 7.0.3 => 700
 7.2.1 => 702
 7.2.2 => 702
 7.4.1 => 704
 ..
 7.10.2 => 710
 }}}
