I need a reliable portability for ages for the Haskell applications written in Haskell-2010 + Ext, where Ext = Overlapping instances + Multiparametric classes (as in GHC). In particular, my DoCon is such an application. And no Haskell tool was able to compile DoCon except GHC (I tested this in 1995 - 2000). And now GHC somehow seems to deviate from portability (if I am not missing something, I do not know of the GHC technology details).
If you are not happy with where GHC is going, I suppose you can stick with some old version which satisfies your requirements? It sounds like you don't care much about performance or new features. -- Roman I. Cheplyaka :: http://ro-che.info/
