I often want to do this in a single testsuite directory, or perhaps just on a single test, like say T15043 in testsuite/tests/typecheck/should_compile. I'm not validating at all ... I just want to run a test, or a directory-full of tests, with the stage1 compiler.
How can I do that?
Thanks
Simon

| I suspect (but have not tested) that you can accomplish this with
|
| hadrian/build.cabal.sh --flavor=validate --build-root=_buildvalidate
| --test-compiler=_buildvalidate/stage0/bin/ghc
|

|
| hadrian/build.cabal.sh --test-compiler=_build/stage0/bin/ghc
|
