Release Candidate 2: HP 2014.4.0.0

[Mark Lentczner]

Haskellistas -

The second release candidate of HP 2014.4.0.0 is now available:

   - Source tarball:
haskell-platform-2012.4.0.0-rc2.tar.gz<http://ozonehouse.com/mark/platform/haskell-platform-2012.4.0.0-rc2.tar.gz>
   - Mac 32-bit installer: Haskell Platform 2012.4.0.0 32bit rc2
signed.pkg<http://ozonehouse.com/mark/platform/Haskell%20Platform%202012.4.0.0%2032bit%20rc2%20signed.pkg>

Mac notes: This version is now digitally signed by me, and so will install
without fuss on OS X 10.8. I'll put up 64-bit version soon.
