ANNOUNCE: GHC porting works again

2009-05-22 Thread Ian Lynagh

Hi all,

The instructions for porting GHC to a new architecture now work again
with the HEAD:
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/Porting

If you get stuck when trying to do a port, then please feel free to ask
us on cvs-...@haskell.org or in #ghc on freenode.


Thanks
Ian

Re: Should exhaustiveness testing be on by default?

2009-05-22 Thread John Meacham
JHC has had this for a while, but it calls the pragma 'SRCLOC_ANNOTATE'. 

It is actually mentioned on this page:
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/ExplicitCallStack

I am not entirely sure whether I will keep the current syntax (it
doesn't really make sense for operators), but if ghc implements
something related, then it would be good to be compatible.

John

Re: Mac OS X 64bit unregisterised port

 With this unregistered port you've made available, we should be well
 on our way to doing this, correct?

Right, by starting from that bindist you won't have to do the
bootstrapping. Now you just need to do a registerised build and fix
any problems / fill in any missing bits.

 (if so, I would like to start
 working on a registered x86_64 port.)

Great! As you probably already know, pumpkin on IRC is also interested
in this.


Thanks
Ian
