 - Run tests on x86_64/linux and powerpc/linux
 - Cross compile rts/Linker.c with the i686-w64-mingw32-gcc and
   x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc Linux to Windows cross-compilers.

Previously something like `/usr/bin/opt-3.7` was being shortened to
`opt-3` using the `takeBaseName` function. This shortened form is
actually not correct. We should use `takeFileName` instead.

This helps catch cabal-flag misconfiguration early on during `cabal

Problem: 'SRC_HC_OPTS += -Wall' in 'mk/warnings.mk' was getting
overwritten by 'SRC_HC_OPTS = ...' in 'mk/flavours/*.mk'.

It didn't affect the compiler or most other libraries, because most
.cabal files define 'ghc-options: -Wall'.

This is based on David's initial patch augmented by more extensive
Haddock comments.

This has been broken out of D1248 to reduce its size
by splitting the patch into smaller logical pieces.

On its own, this new module does nothing interesting yet.
Later patches will add support for a different desugaring of
`do`-blocks, at which point the new `MonadFail` class will
become more useful.

This missed to perform in f8ba4b55

This pulls in a minor version bump to v1.4.1, this way
GHC HEAD nightly builds report a proper version number.

Summary:
D1357 introduces usage of Elf32_Section/Elf64_Section in RTS linker
code. Unfortunately this is a non-portable Linux-ism and such types are not
defined anywhere except the Linux-land probably. I've checked Solaris 11.2,
Solaris 11.3, FreeBSD 10.1, NetBSD 6.1.5 and OpenBSD current. The fix
is easy to use `unsigned short' as this is also an underlying type
of those Elf*_Section defines in Linux.

Previously the eventlog flush code would fail if `fwrite` wrote less
than the requested amount. Like all Unix stream I/O operations, however,
`fwrite` isn't guaranteed to write the entire buffer. Here we loop as
long as `fwrite` succeeds in writing anything.

Fixes #11041.

Summary:
Python 3 seems to have fixed the long standing codepage issue with
python on Windows. To be able to reliably build the documentation
we should use the Python 3 version of Sphinx.

See `https://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/3.3.html#codecs` and
`https://bugs.python.org/issue13216`. Sphinx also supports Python 3.

Oddly enough `python3-sphinx` is registered as `sphinx-build.exe`
instead of `sphinx-build3.exe`, so the changes in `configure.ac` can
be reverted.

We don't need to update StgCase's AltType, because it's already set
correctly in `CoreToStg.mkStgAltType`, so we can just remove extra
argument passing and return values.

don't need to update AltTypes)

RTS convention is to use camel-case.

This is no longer necessary since this symbol can be unwound through
with its DWARF information.

This is a bit ugly as we need to assume the structure of the C stack as
left by StgRun. Nevertheless, it allows us to unwind all the way back to
`_start` on my machine.

```

We will need to use these to setup proper unwinding information for the
stg_stop_thread closure. This pokes a hole in the STG abstraction,
exposing the machine's stack pointer register so that we can accomplish
this. We also expose a dummy return address register, which corresponds
to the register used to hold the DWARF return address.

Differential Revision: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D1225

Here we add a `same_value $sp` instruction to our default unwinding
rules to ensure that the implicit `$sp = CFA` rule (which `libdw`
appears to exhibit on x86_64) doesn't overwrite it (necessary since we
don't use $sp to track our call stack).

See Phab Diff D1189 for details on how we arrived at this resolution.

This also needs to update the primitive/vector submodules in order to
relax upper bounds on ghc-prim.

Like in f8ba4b55, a mass-rewrite in testsuite/ via

  sed -i s,ghc-prim-0.4.0.0,ghc-prim-0.5.0.0,g $(git grep -Fl 'ghc-prim-0.4.0.0')

was performed.

This also relaxes a few upper bounds on base in the ghc.git repo;

This required a mass-rewrite in testsuite/
