[SOLVED] xmonad/xmobar virtual memory issue

After update of ghc, xmobar and xmonad (and other haskell dependencies) the virtual memory usage in top (and htop) are shown to equal 1.0 TB.

Can anyone confirm this?

The packages versions are:
xmonad 0.12-4
xmobar 0.23.1-16
ghc 8.0.1-1

Should this bug be submitted upstream? Or is it a feature?

Can confirm. Seems like a known "feature", it's mentioned in the release notes here, in the first bullet point.
