Comment(by Mikolaj):

 Thank you for your pointers. The unregistersied build failed with the
 build.mk options from Building/Unregisterised, but succeeded with options
 from Building/Porting. Then "fvia-C -funregisterised" indeed works (see
 #3971). About the manpage, I haven't noticed it's from 2002, so
 inaccuracies are understandable.

 I'm afraid it's slipping to tier 3, at least for some processors, because
 FFI callbacks fail even in unregistered mode and ghci tends to have
 problems. But at least it boostraps perfectly so far... Anyway, thank you
 again for the prompt response and keep up the good work!
