No, actually I'd like to have GHC, because many libraries I want to use depend on it. But good that you point this out, maybe it would be possible to have NHC compile GHC... Although the FAQ says it would most probably not work.
It most *definitely* would not work ;-) To bootstrap the unregisterised version, I suggest starting from version 4.08.2. The reason is that bootstrapping more recent versions from .hc files is significantly more difficult (but hopefully should get easier again soon...). Cheers, Simon

OK, be it 4.08.2 then. I see there are HC files for x86 and Sparc, how do I get (produce) them for PowerPC? Regards, Sven Moritz -- "Would the All-Seeing Eye please look in my direction?" [ PGP KeyID: 0xC297FEAB ]
