Thanks a lot for this job and thanks a lot to everyone working on
cross-compilation capability of GHC!
Using GHC HEAD just after Simon M patch I've been able to cross-compile
it from i386-solaris to x86_64-solaris for the first time. I've
attempted this port a year or two ago doing it the old way, but
miserably failed. Today this was just a hour or so task. Three patches
for this needed are already submitted. Hello world is working:
$ ./inplace/bin/ghc-stage2 --make HelloWorld.hs
[1 of 1] Compiling Main ( HelloWorld.hs, HelloWorld.o )
Linking HelloWorld ...
karel@silence:~/vcs/ghc-src/ghc-head$ file HelloWorld

linked, not stripped

Hello World!
karel@silence:~/vcs/ghc-src/ghc-head$
The only issue I see with it is that I'm not able to perform another
clean build of GHC HEAD using this amd64 compiler since genprimopcode
segfaults on me.
gmake[1]: Nothing to be done for `phase_0_builds'.
===--- building phase 1
gmake -r --no-print-directory -f ghc.mk phase=1 phase_1_builds

Segmentation Fault (core dumped)

Anyway, thanks a lot for this fantastic job!

To build a cross-compiler:

To compile a foreign GHC:

Cheers,
