I just want to let you know, that I really like the idea of running
Haskell applications on Genode. I assume this boils done to porting the
RTS. Moreover, I'd prefer an integrated approach that also allows
accessing RPC interfaces from within Haskell applications. I don't have
much experience with Haskell (yet) but the Foreign Function Interface
(FFI) [1] looks quite promising for this purpose. There is also an FFI
generator for C++ [2].
Let me know if you are going to pursue this challenge.
