Hi Stephen, on the wiki page you mention that you work on TH for cross-GHC. What is the status / attack plan on that? Here is something I was thinking all the time: What about enabling TH in the STAGE1 GHC (i.e. the final cross-GHC) iff the bootstrap compiler has exactly the same version as the one to be built? I understood that TH cannot be part of STAGE1 because of version mismatch issues in TH-internal data structures. Since TH is bytecode based, the target architecture should not be a concern. This could be a stopgap measure until we figure out the details how to switch over the build system so that STAGE2 is the cross-compiler (with TH), and optionally STAGE3 a native target compiler. Is there a reason why such a trick would not work in short term? I'd like to know. Cheers, Gabor
