I'm not sure why you're trying to run things from the libffi directory. As far 
as I know, the test suite is normally run from ghc/testsuite.

availability 
I'd like to run the testsuite on macOS but I am having trouble following the 
documentation at 
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/RunningTests/Running
Do I need to download something in addition to the source tarball or am I 
making some mistake?
Following is what I tried:
 pwd/Users/gcolpitts/Downloads/ghc-8.2.0.20170404/libffi# doc says: The 
commands on this page can all be executed from the testsuite 
directory.bash-3.2$ find . -name

I am happy to announce the release of the 8.2.1-rc1 source distribution

to binary packagers.

It seems to build okay for me on Fedora 26 so far.

But the testsuite completely failed in timeout: see 
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13534

Cheers, Jens
