L.S., I just read about Minix and found a discussion [1] about Andrew Tanenbaum (the creator of Minix) wanting to try drivers written in Haskell on Minix. It has been four years since, is there currently a way to (cross)compile Haskell programs for Minix? Haskell well suited to write reliable software and Minix is all about reliability; they seem to match perfectly. It would increase visibility of Haskell if it can be used on Minix systems.

I guess you should look at JHC, it shouldn't be a huge effort to port it to the Minix 3 OS. Cheers, -- Felipe.
