GHC 9.2.8 is now available

Zubin Duggal - 2023-05-26

The GHC developers are happy to announce the availability of GHC 9.2.8. Binary distributions, source distributions, and documentation are available at downloads.haskell.org.

This release is primarily a bugfix release addressing one issue found in 9.2.7:

• Fix a bug with RTS linker failing with ‘internal error: m32_allocator_init: Failed to map’ on newer Linux kernels (#19421).

We would like to thank Microsoft Azure, GitHub, IOG, the Zw3rk stake pool, Well-Typed, Tweag I/O, Serokell, Equinix, SimSpace, Haskell Foundation, and other anonymous contributors whose on-going financial and in-kind support has facilitated GHC maintenance and release management over the years. Finally, this release would not have been possible without the hundreds of open-source contributors whose work comprise this release.

As always, do give this release a try and open a ticket if you see anything amiss.

Happy compiling,

• Zubin
