I'm sending this patch here to solicit comments.
Ian Lynagh has been converting GHC's build system to use Cabal for packages
instead of our current Makefile setup. There are a couple of things that don't
work as well with Cabal: (1) we can't use 'make -j' and get parallel builds, and
(2) we can't build individual files and give extra options on the command line:
this is occasionally very useful when debugging the compiler or testing small
changes.
So we could fix these with brute force: I have patches to make GHC --make work
in parallel, but it needs a lot of work to make it robust. We could add support
to Cabal to build a single file and give extra options on the command line, but
most people don't need this.
Instead, I decided to address both of these in one go: the idea is to have Cabal
generate a Makefile that you can use with 'make -j' or to build a single file
with 'make dist/build/Foo.o', for example. It only works with GHC, and only for
libraries (I could probably make it work for executables too, just haven't done
that yet). It does work with profiling, and as far as I can tell everything
else works, because GHC gets invoked with almost exactly the same arguments as
with 'setup build', except that it is invoked one file at a time.
This is really the missing piece needed to let GHC use Cabal for its build
system, so I'm pretty keen for this to go in. Comments?
Cheers,
Simon
New patches:
[Add 'setup makefile' command
Simon Marlow **20070309155022
'setup makefile' generates a Makefile that performs the steps
necessary to compile the Haskell sources to object code. This only
works for libraries, and only with GHC right now.
Instead of simply 'setup build', you can do this:
$ ./setup makefile
$ make
$ ./setup build
where './setup makefile' does the preprocessing and generates a
Makefile tailored to the current package. 'make' will build all the
Haskell code to object files, and 'setup build' will build any C code
and the library archives.
The reason for all this is that you can say 'make -j' and get a
parallel build, or you can say
make dist/build/Foo.o EXTRA_HC_OPTS=-keep-s-file
to compile a single file with extra options.

[Tweaks to make Cabal play nicer with haddock
Ian Lynagh **20070308155718
The path for the html docs now includes the package name at the end,
which works nicer for multiple packages sharing a contents/index.
Use --ghc-pkg when available (in haddock darcs only currently) to tell
haddock which ghc-pkg to use.
Use --allow-missing-html when available (in haddock darcs only
currently) to tell haddock not to worry if it can't find the HTML for
packages we depend on. This is necessary when haddocking a group of
packages before moving them all into place.

[Fix non-fatal problem with 'setup haddock' for an exe package
Simon Marlow **20070109133751
For some unknown reason, we were passing --use-package=P to haddock,
where P is the name of the current executable package. This can never
work, since P is not a library and will not be installed. Fortunately
Haddock ignores the error and continues anyway.

[Set the Cabal version when building via the fptools build system
sven.panne@aedion.de**20070106152814
Without this patch, Cabal is effectively "version-less" and all .cabal
files with a version requirement are unusable. Therefore I think that
this patch (or at least something equivalent) should be pushed to the
6.6.1 branch, too.

[revise Paths module for the Hugs target
Ross Paterson **20061108223349
When targetting Hugs, the Paths module now uses prefix-independent
paths relative to the location of the Main module of the program,
on all platforms.
For the Hugs target, this replaces the code using GetModuleFileNameA(),
which never worked. Behaviour under GHC should be unchanged.
