One the programs I tested the computation of Meertens numbers from Bird/Wadler's book. This program segfaults on amd64, but not on i386. You'll probably find that the testsuite shows up this (and maybe other) bugs. Start with a full testsuite run, is my advice.

I have found a couple of small bugs regarding FreeBSD. Changing the configure process would be helpful. FreeBSD-amd64 is identified as x86_64-unknown-freebsd, but the entry in configure uses amd64-*-freebsd*r; this should be made consistent. The FreeBSD cc needs -L/usr/local/lib and -I/usr/local/lib to find the native gmp (and possibly others, too) library. I tried to find out a way to use the FreeBSD-i386 ghc, which runs fine on FreeBSD-amd64, for bootstrap. The problem in this case is to substitute the 32bit assembler and linker instead of the 64bit versions. In case of the assembler the script as32 was usable like this one: #!/bin/sh /usr/bin/cc -Xassembler -32 $* But I failed to figure out the right ld32 script. -- Dipl.-Math.

I would expect SIZEOF_mp_limb_t to be correct, as it is generated by mkDerivedConstants. Perhaps you compiled mkDerivedConstants as a 32-bit executable?

GHC porting to FreeBSD-amd64 progress report
In my effort to produce a working FreeBSD-amd64 compiler I made some progress. Now I have a working stage1/ghc-inplace (which is a 32bit executable producing 64bit code).

Is there a way to get to a working system from this intermediate stage? I tried to replace the real 32bit ghc in /usr/local/bin/ghc with a ghc-inplace, but this didn't work. Probably I only need to get the correct derived constants in the header files and remake the files depending on them. -- Dipl.-Math.
