looks like ~exp2 built on all release archs, so ss there any chance
this version can be uploaded to unstable? ghc is currently the last
reverse dependency for llvm-toolchain-6.0, which could be removed as
soon as the version of ghc reaches sid. bonus points, this version
will also reduce by 1 the number of reverse dependencies of
python-sphinx, making it closer to be removed.

Thanks for considering.
Sandro
