Well, yes. If bytecode generation isn't available for ARM, then

That's a pity. How hard would it be to add bytecode generation for ARM?
Ehm, is the note about GHCi porting on
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/Porting still right?
i.e. is just rts/Linker.c port required or is there anything else needed
for "bytecode generation"?
To be honest I'm just fighting with ARM/registerised build as a hobby
project now so GHCi was not on my todo list so far...(but if this thing
is needed for DPH, then I'll probably have a look at it too...)
Yes, it's just the linker. The rest of the platform-dependent stuff for
GHCi is handled by libffi these days.
Cheers,
Simon
