I think so. Is the same true of > 'random'?
vector, random and primitive, yes. We don't build any of them in the branch so that we are testing that the build works without them in the tree, and so there is no chance of them accidentally slipping into the release source tarball or bindists. We don't make the releases of DPH, so I've been leaving testing with RCs etc up to the maintainers (i.e. as we do with all the other libraries on Hackage).
