Regarding the stage 2 issue, strictly speaking building `compiler/stage2` is correct, because it is the `ghc` package that can be used with the cross-compiler. If you don't want to build it, then setting `stage = 1` in your `mk/build.mk` should disable it. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7639#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
