  1. Use GHC.Types.SPEC instead of GHC.Exts.SpecConstrAnnotation 

    This means GHCi isn't needed anymore to build vector. This has a couple
of advantages:
  * `vector` can now be built with a stage1 compiler (e.g. iOS
    cross-compiler) [1]
  * `vector` and its dependencies can now be build on a noexec mounted
    disk, preventing bug reports such as [2]

GHC.Types.SPEC was added to ghc-prim 0.3.1.0 / GHC 7.8.1 [3].
