It appears GHC 7.10.1-rc2 doesn’t support glibc 2.11 — specifically, 2.11.1 
(Ubuntu 10.04 LTS) and 2.11.3 (Debian 6).  glibc 2.12 (CentOS 6) seems to work 
fine.  Symptoms include:

The bindist name does mention 'deb7', so perhaps this is all working as 
intended.  However, similarly named bindists for GHC 7.8.* work fine with glibc 
2.11.


In other news, I’m happy to say Halcyon now supports GHC 7.10.1-rc2 on CentOS 6 
and 7, Debian 7, Fedora 19, 20, and 21, and Ubuntu 12 and 14.
https://halcyon.sh/

   $ halcyon install --ghc-version=7.10.1-rc2 --cabal-version=1.22.0.0


Best,
