Well, OpenBSD 6.1 is almost dead, 6.2 is the stable release at the moment, and 6.3 will probably be released in about two months. For 6.2 the default C compiler is clang-4.0.0, for 6.3, it will be at least clang-5.0.1 (at least on i386 and amd64 platforms). So, providing ghc binaries for 6.1 at all would be mostly pointless, anyway (there will be no support for 6.1 from the moment 6.3 has been released). Ciao, Kili ps: whoever is doing binary releases of ghc for OpenBSD (I only know about Karel Gardas pushing patches from our ports tree from time to time) could use a newer gcc or clang from ports/packages if it helps. Of course, if time permits (and as the defacto maintainer of lang/ghc on OpenBSD I know how time consuming this can be ;-))
