Would providing automated tooling for changes be possible?

I think there would be much less resistance if there was working
automatic tooling for the various changes and e.g. >95% of Hackage 
would build with each new GHC version.

Currently code seems to be breaking with every major GHC release.
In essence this drives up costs of maintaining software.

One of the reasons I use Haskell less than I used to use for
work stuff is the lack of stability and constant breakage
that adds up.
