Definitely but given I've just switched from a successfulish looking ARM version to a PowerPC x86 popping out was the last thing I expected. Though it's not the first time I have attempted to cross-compile with (slightly older versions of) clang/LLVM and found it confused about its architectures. I have since knocked the -fllvm from SRC_HC_OPTS and GhcStage1HcOpts and that got me past the immediate hurdle producing a powerpc---ghc which which I could compile a helloworld.hs but the result hangs. So far I've only got as far as checking that yes the entry point, _start has PowerPC and not complete garbage code. I shall dig a bit deeper today equipped with a flimsy knowledge of both Haskell and PowerPC. Jon
I'd use NCG instead of LLVM and still there is something fishy about your setup since this generated assembly looks like x86 to me.
