I spent a little time the other day building all of Hackage with GHC HEAD.
Here's a quick writeup of what I found.
Total packages: 5564
Succeeded with 7.6.3: 3234

Most of the breakage could be fixed by loosening the dependencies on the
template-haskell and primitive packages, and here are the rest.
Btw/fyi, as one of the new killer features of Hackage 2, incorrect

Shouldn't the last line of the patch be?:
+foreign import ccall performGC performMinorGC :: IO ()

The code for 'allocate' in rts/sm/Storage.c doesn't seem that
expensive. An extra branch compared to inline allocation and
