Is there a cabal equivalent for yhc?
One day we hope Cabal will support yhc. It currently supports ghc, hugs and has partial support for nhc98 and jhc. The main thing holding it back is dependency chasing in Cabal or the lack thereof. Cabal relies on the build-in dep chasing in hugs, ghc --make. It uses hmake for nhc98. We hope to replace this hodge-podge with proper dependency chasing support in Cabal, that's also extend to pre-processors etc. If anyone is interested in helping with this project, subscribe to cabal-devel and get involved.
