Comment(by duncan):
Ah yes, so in fact we need the beginnings of cross-compilation support. We
need to be able to specify or discover the target architecture.
I see that as of ghc-7, ghc --info now reports its target platform:
{{{
,("Build platform","x86_64-unknown-linux")
,("Host platform","x86_64-unknown-linux")
,("Target platform","x86_64-unknown-linux")
}}}
Can you check what it uses on OSX 32 and 64 bit?
