Is there any conceivable factoring of GHC that would allow you to
sandwich the core of jhc in between the front and back ends of GHC? Or
are the architectures so fundamentally incompatible as to make this
impossible?
Such a factoring would be one way the community could help, and if
Would it be possible to separate the frontend (Haskell to Core) and backend
(Core to machine code) from the Haskell compilers (requiring a standard Core
language?)
I'm not sure how many extensions required a change to the Core language.
Most likely this is nice in theory but hard in practice?

I think doing this work would improve the design of GHC by improving
modularity and factoring out generalized abstractions.
The richest possible core language makes the most sense for a common
core, because what's not needed can always be discarded. From your
description, it sounds like
