in addition to what Ben already said: is there any particular reason you wanted to use the stage0 compiler?
Yes! I want to use the Haskell Language Server with my code. I am given to understand that HLS does not work with GHC HEAD, so if I want to use HLS with my own code, it needs to be compiled with the bootstrap compiler, which *does* support HLS. Therefore I am using stage0 so that my own code and the GHC library are compiled with the same compiler. I will, however, repeat my experiment using stage1. It would be good to confirm your experience. Norman
