On a related note, I find it strange when looking through source code for 'containers'/other Haskell libraries and still see notes about supporting non-GHC Haskell compilers (e.g. Hugs)

Recently we got to install Hugs on a Lego machine - installation required several minutes. I would not try to install GHC there.
