Hi, I was just wondering if this is possible, I would like to use a gcc port which cross compiles to the PPC architecture (Wii DevkitPPC to be specifically: http://wiibrew.org/wiki/DevkitPPC) for a platform that is not POSIX compatible I believe (at least not fully or maybe I'm wrong entirely). Ideally I would make an unregistered port of GHC but the problem is because GHC doesn't support true cross compiling yet I need to bootstrap on to the target machine, which isn't running a POSIX environment. Still I did try to attempt to build with both the host and target set to 'powerpc-unknown-linux' and build it with devkitPPC, I did use a custom build.mk which should pull in all the required dependencies, defines, etc for devkitPPC. In the end I didn't get very far with it, it looked like missing posix functions. I didn't want to spend to much time trying to make it work this way (maybe i'm doing it wrong completely). It's quite possible that I could make this work more easily if I used a linux port for the wii but I would like to avoid the need of using linux on the wii because I guess most home-brew users don't have such a setup. So I thought maybe it's possible with less effort to build GHC's RTS and then compile Haskell in C with the RTS as a library dependency. Is this possible? maybe I'm missing something or doing something stupid? Thanks in advance. _________________________________________________________________ http://clk.atdmt.com/UKM/go/197222280/direct/01/ We want to hear all your funny, exciting and crazy Hotmail stories.
