thyme-0.3.5.5 can't compile its test suite

[peti]

The build with GHC 7.10.2 fails as follows:

tests/Common.hs:5:1: Warning:
    The import of ‘Control.Applicative’ is redundant
      except perhaps to import instances from ‘Control.Applicative’
    To import instances alone, use: import Control.Applicative()

This is due to time-1.5 abandoning System.Locale.defaultTimeLocale from old-locale and providing its own instead. It's fixed in master.
