Well, I have a patch series somewhere on my disk that adds ghc-toolchain and hides ghc, similarly as gcc-toolchain. Somehow, I think that, “guix shell ghc-toolchain” should just work out-of-the-box. And the replacement of the C toolchain would be done with the package transformation with-c-toolchain. Bah, the series needs polishing… arf! Cheers, simon
