Are there any plans for a workaround for this before GHC is patched?
It seems like having aeson as non-buildable on some significant target
platforms would be a serious problem. If that's not planned, I think
we'll need to put some version restrictions on blaze-textual to avoid
the double-conversion dependency, which I don't think would be a good
solution.
