Description

GHC 7.8.4 doesn't work on OS X 10.11. Fixing that requires rebuilding with newer versions of some core libs, or installing the newer versions into the global package DB. Details on https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/2653.

But stack will still try to install that GHC version (if install-ghc is enabled).
