Thanks! That’s all identical to my procedure except that I’m using 10.9 DP5/Xcode 5 DP5, so I guess that must play some role, though I’m not sure what.

Luke,

I didn't experience anything like you described. Here's as much detail as I can think of about what I did:

 * Mac OS/X 10.8.4

 * Xcode 4.6

 * ghc-7.6.3 downloaded from http://haskell.org/ghc as the bootstrap compiler

 * llvm - 3.0 built from source downloaded off the llvm site:

Low Level Virtual Machine (http://llvm.org/):
  llvm version 3.0
  Optimized build.
  Built Jan 31 2012 (09:33:35).
  Host: x86_64-apple-darwin12.4.0
  Host CPU: penryn

  Registered Targets:
    alpha    - Alpha [experimental]
    arm      - ARM
    ... and others ...

Before I had a problem with not enough memory but I bought some more. So I got a cross compiler built, but wasn't able to test it, because I can't authorize my iPod Touch for development at the moment (Apple systems are down). So I can't verify that it produces iOS executables that work.

The latest commit in the git log for GHC HEAD was this:

commit e8aa8ccba0c40884765281b21ff8f4411802dd41
Author: Richard Eisenberg <eir@cis.upenn.edu>
Date:   Fri Aug 2 15:47:03 2013 +0100

    Implement "roles" into GHC.
    ...

I patched it as attached here (same patch as in my last email).

The procedure I used was exactly the one described at http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/CrossCompiling/iOS

Thanks for your work on this! That problem you're having is pretty weird!

I built a tool to partially automate the indentation workaround for LLVM

    OK! So just to summarize:
    Building GHC HEAD with LLVM 3.0 or 3.2 (using GHC 7.6.3 as the
    bootstrap) on OS X 10.9 DP5/Xcode 5 DP5 exhibits very strange
    behavior wherein layout-based code along with mixed-tabs-and-spaces
    code fails to parse correctly, with issues in hundreds of files in
    the GHC HEAD tree.
    I don't have a 10.8 machine to check if this is a 10.9 exclusive
    issue, so I'd love if someone can try using these binaries to build
    GHC HEAD:
    http://llvm.org/releases/3.0/clang+llvm-3.0-x86_64-apple-darwin11.tar.gz

    Building GHC HEAD with LLVM 3.3 or 3.4 works great as a regular
    compiler with the 10.9 workarounds I outlined in another thread, but
    fails when compiling as a cross-compiler (./configure
    --target=arm-apple-darwin10) with these errors:
    https://gist.github.com/lukexi/2b129f34fa027172c5ee

    So I'm between a rock and a hard place at the moment.

    The only (very tedious and slow) workaround I've found for the
    3.0/3.2 bug is to manually expand tabs to spaces, and to transform
    do x
        y
    into
    do
         x
         y
    (similarly for where and let blocks)

            Further investigation:

            I grabbed 7.6.3 just to see if I somehow had a bad install

            The problem only occurs with LLVM 3.0.

            It is not related to cross-compilation or Stephen's patches:
            I tested this on multiple fresh clones with --with-gcc=clang.

            LLVM 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 do not exhibit the issue.

            If anyone wants to try to reproduce, you can grab the LLVM
            3.0 binaries here Clang Binaries for MacOS X/x86-64
            <http://llvm.org/releases/3.0/clang+llvm-3.0-x86_64-apple-darwin11.tar.gz> and

                    Hi Stephen/all,

                    I got LLVM 3.0 installed and started building again

                    layout-based code (as in

                    I can fix the errors one by one by converting the

                    do
                         thing1
                         thing2
                    )
                    but it's all over the tree.

                    Anyone have any idea what might cause this?

                        Luke,

                        Try llvm version 3.0 - that's what I'm using,
                        and it definitely worked before. llvm-3.1 is
                        broken for GHC+ARM. As for llvm >= 3.2, I'm not
                        sure if it's been fixed yet, but it wasn't
                        working last time I tried a couple of months
                        ago. I think this was because llvm is getting
                        fussier about its input and GHC hasn't been
                        "tightened up" yet.

                        It's really easy to build llvm from source.

                                     You are using a new version of LLVM

                                     We will try though...

                                     which I figured out were because
                            the homebrew LLVM 3.4 only
                                     includes host platforms by default
                            (x86/x86-64)
                                     Reinstalling it with all-targets
                            enables them all:
                                     brew install llvm --with-clang
                            --all-targets --HEAD

                                     Trying again now.
