Comment:

 Porting to a new platform is now working again:
 http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/Porting

 Doing a non-bootstrapping build from HC files isn't something that we plan
 to support, especially given that the registerised via-C way will be
 disappearing.

 Let's postpone this past the 6.10 release, because the build system is in

Comment:

 The ArmLinuxGhc project would love to have bootstrapping working for 6.10
 (or in 6.9), since the move to libffi makes 6.10 much easier to port than
 6.8.

Comment (by kili):

 The diff I uploaded contains some comments inline. It's for ghc-6.8.2 but
 also applies to the latest stable snapshot (ghc-6.8.2.20080401).

 As written earlier, it's possible to create a HC file bundle (with some
 additional created files) and to build a stage1 compiler with this. I'm a
 little bit uncertain how to proceed -- either go ahead using libcompat
 (which is a little bit ugly), or try to rebuild all the libraries
 immediately with that stage1 compiler (but without using utils/ghc-pkg,
 since it's not yet buildable), then build the remaining tools.

Comment:

 I'd like to see this fixed for ghc-6.8.3, because for a proper OpenBSD
 port, bootstrapping from a precompiled binary is a no-go. I hope to get
 the time to review, cleanup and attach my current diffs until next week.
 Current state is that I'm able to create an unregisterised HC file bundle
 and bootstrap a working stage1 from this bundle (on i386), but the next
 step still doesn't work because some of the -inplace tools (ghc-pkg is one
 of them) aren't available yet.

 Please note: if you don't consider this important enough for 6.8.3, I can
 as well keep the patches locally in the OpenBSD port and try to adopt them
 for 6.10.1 later.

There's some work to do on 6.8 to ensure that we can still bootstrap from
 HC files.  This will be slightly harder due to the new Cabal-based build
 system for libraries, and the solution will probably involve 'setup
 makefile' somewhere.  Also we'll need to update the building guide to
 include the new instructions, whatever they may be.
