Refer to Control.Concurrent instead of GHC.Conc in GHC 7.4.1 User's Guide
GHC 7.4.1 RC 2 User's Guide "RTS options for SMP parallelism" section describes not recommend way. Using getNumCapabilities function from GHC.Conc instead of Control.Concurrent module, and using GHC.Conc's deprecated forkOnIO function instead of Control.Concurrent's forkOn function.
GHC HEAD already fixed this problem by 7d7809de with below base package's change ( 1b5f7ae2ffc6f3c851970efc26687763a4e0fc58 ).
But ghc-7.4 branch doesn't fix this yet.
Ian, could you please merge these changes.
