Thread status decoded wrong in base library
Kyle Van Berendonck <kvanberendonck@gmail.com> in a message on ghc-devs pointed to base/GHC/Conc/Sync.lhs decoding thread block reasons from constants defined in includes/rts/Constants.h to a Haskell type.
The constants were modified in GHC-7.8.2, which created problems with eventlogs (ticket #9003 (closed)), so the constants were reverted, but base was not adapted to the respective fix.
