And now GHC somehow seems to deviate from portability
Registerised GHC was never "portable". Or if it was, it was well before GHC6. You just weren't aware of what was going on, and apparently built yourself a fantasy world where GHC always produced perfectly portable ANSI C code. That's an unregisterised build. It's still there, for portability reasons. It's not three times slower, or ten times slower; for many things, it's several hundred times slower, or worse. But I'm sure even that is not justification for not having been designed specifically with your important needs in mind. -- brandon s allbery allbery.b@gmail.com wandering unix systems administrator (available) (412) 475-9364 vm/sms
