binary distribution of ghc-6.5.20060831 for i686-apple-darwin

Hello! I am a newbie to Haskell, and this is my first time to post here. Well, I successfully built a binary distribution of ghc-6.5.20060831 for i686-apple-darwin. So I would like to contribute this, but is there a place to upload this binary distribution? What I did is: First I built ghc-6.5.20060828 using binary distribition http://pugs.blogs.com/dist/ghc-6.5.20060608.tar.bz2 contributed by AudreyTang. Thanks to useful information on http://cvs.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/X86OSXGhc I followed the instruction about unpull and pull the "Fix Array imports" patch. Then I built ghc-6.5.20060831 using ghc-6.5.20060828 and it seems ok. But I am not sure because I am just a newbie to Haskell. I think it is useful to have a binary distribution on the GHC home page so that other newbie Intel Mac users can test this release candidate easily without compiling themselves. Thanks in advance. -- )Hiroaki Nakamura) hnakamur@gmail.com

Please send us a link, we can upload it to the snapshot dir on haskell.org.

So is your build a stock 6.5.20060831, or does it lack some patches? Cheers, Simon
