Hello all, Is anybody using GHC's backend as a backend for their own compiler? In the paper "An external representation for the GHC Core Language" the introduction states that "there are many (undocumented) idiosyncracies in the way GHC produces Core from source Haskell". And that "it will be hard to produced Core that can be integrated with GHC-produced core, and we don't aim to support this". Has this changed since the time of writing this paper? It would be cool if, let's say, Helium (http://www.cs.uu.nl/helium) could use all of GHC's libraries... Regards, Arjan van IJzendoorn
