@chenrui333 , thanks for the heads up!

The Hackage-released BNFC 2.9.5 supports GHC 9.8.1, are there any problems with it?

The commit you point to is just fixes for the CI here.

Also, if you look at the diff between current masterand v2.9.5, there isn't anything of interest (no code change): https://github.com/BNFC/bnfc/compare/v2.9.5...master#files_bucket

Let me know whether this answers your request.

@andreasabel I see you have updated the CI config for that change, but you actually did not release it, that is why I raised this issue :)

Actually it builds out fine now, just filed a new PR to build/test with ghc 9.8. Let's see how it goes

Looks like it builds out fine now, closing the issue.
