GdH is maintained and distributed by Phil Trinder and his colleagues at Heriot Watt. I think it's still alive, but it's based on a much earlier version of GHC.
I wonder how much work would it be to integrate it. Also, their servers are down for some reason, I can't open http:// www.macs.hw.ac.uk/~dsg/gdh/.
If it's parallelism you're after, GHC (as distributed) runs on shared-memory multi-processors. But we don't have anything like GdH or GpH, which work on distributed-memory machines, yet.
I'm after Erlang in Haskell, if you will, for fault-tolerance and scalability. Thanks, Joel -- http://wagerlabs.com/
