I wonder if someone might be able to clear a few things up for me about implementing Integer with GMP. First, is the link below the most up-to-date information regarding GHC's situation? http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/ReplacingGMPNotes#BinaryDropinRepla... I assume that "INTEGER_LIBRARY=integer-foo" is an option when compiling GHC itself and not when using GHC, correct? If so, what version of GHC was this added? 6.10, 6.12, HEAD? Lastly, I'm confused about GHC's posted license, should it actually be LGPL so long as it statically links GMP? Aren't there a number of companies releasing binaries that were compiled with GHC? Thanks, Greg
