Sam,
I work on graphics engine/pipeline for Spore at Electronic Arts, and
I've had some similar thoughts as you.

I can't see that this would be unachievable, particularly given it's
generating C already. Have I missed something?
For the case of GHC at least, you may be. The "C" that GHC compiles
Haskell into isn't C in the normal l

That would be like what you get with Haskell FFI "export"?

Sam,
I work on graphics engine/pipeline for Spore at Electronic Arts, and
I've had some similar thoughts as you. But I don't think this is the
right path for games right now.
The "via C" compiler does generate C code that it puts through GCC.
There is a post-process step after the code is conver

Cheers,

Have you considered using FFI?

Hi Everyone,
It appears the GHC compiler (and other) compile Haskell *via-C* but
not
*to C*. I've never really understood why there isn't a C generation
option, or why GDC ships with its own compulsory copy of gcc.
