has anyone ever considered using llvm as a infrastructure for haskell compilation? it wold seem people are looking at building frontends for scheme, ocaml, etc. i don't know if an alternate backend is appropriate, but it would seem to be an interesting way to aggregate the best thinking for various optimizations over a more diverse group of developers.
People are definitely interested in it. Needs some people with compiler experience and GHC experience to tackle it seriously, I suspect. -- Don
