GHC 6.10.4 on AMD64 architecture.

Hi all, With the help of the Jacula, I'm able to build an AMD64 version of GHC using ports mechanism. The shar file[1] contains the GHC port which will generate the bootstrap GHC which is required for installing the lang/ghc port[2]. This file is originally provided by Jacula, which I later modified. The diff file[3] contains the updated port which includes support for amd64 architecture. To use these files, follow the steps below: 1. Extract the shar file in a directory and change to it. 2. Execute 'make' which will build bootstrap GHC 6.10.4 using bootstrap GHC 6.8.3 and generate a tarball containing it in the $WRKSRC directory. 3. Copy the generated file in $PORTSDIR/distfiles directory. 4. Create a copy of port lang/ghc in a new directory and change to it. 5. Patch it using the attached diff, i.e. patch -p1 <~/ghc-6.10.4.diff command. 6. Edit 'Makefile' and update the name of your tarball. 7. Execute 'make makesum' to regenerate the checksums. 8. Execute 'make install' (as root user) to install the GHC. Upload your bootstrap GHC tarball somewhere so it can be included in the updated port. ATM, I've generated a bootstrap tarball for FreeBSD 8.0 (amd64) which I'll upload somewhere soon.
