Compilation error with GHC 8.6.5 #10

Thanks for maintaining this very useful package!

While using it in my packages, I noticed that recently it's started failing to build with GHC 8.6.5 with the following error:

[1 of 1] Compiling Test.Hspec.Hedgehog ( src/Test/Hspec/Hedgehog.hs, /home/shersh/haskell/sandbox/hspec-hedgehog/dist-newstyle/build/x86_64-linux/ghc-8.6.5/hspec-hedgehog-0.0.1.2/noopt/build/Test/Hspec/Hedgehog.o )

Would it be possible to patch the code to make hspec-hedgehog build with GHC 8.6.5?

Yeah, should be possible! Looks like we have a mismatch on the random version using a different generator. Version bounds or CPP are probably the right choice here.

This seems to be resolved now as hspec-hedgehog started building on GHC 8.6.5 again. So I'm closing this issue.
