Just curious: I've been messing with multi-ghc lately, which installs
tarball distributions fine, but I haven't figured out how to get this
source build to work with it. The multi-ghc makefile tries to build it if i
clone the ghc-ios repo into it, but I assume the environment is wrong, and
I haven't been able to figure out how to get it to stick once the multi-ghc
makefile does its thing. Perhaps this is a question better posed to someone
who's worked on multi-ghc, but since we're talking builds anyway...
Thanks,
Alex

I thought I'd post some information about building ghc-ios from a new git clone since there are some issues. I believe these are temporary issues and will be resolved as patches go from the ios branch to master.
If you do a git clone followed by a sync-all you'll wind up with a lot of the "sub" repositories being on commits that are too new for ghc-ios. For awhile I felt like I was yak shaving but I've been able to track down commits for all the repositories that are working right now.
I ended up writing a script since GHC isn't using git submodules and the sync-all script doesn't seem to support a way to specify which commits are appropriate for each of the repositories.
I'm keeping the script at the following URL if anyone needs it:
