Folks,

thanks to 64bit GHC binaries provided by Alain's SmartOS builder I've been able to hack GHC to compile well on/for x86_64-solaris platform. Austin already merged the support into GHC HEAD, see https://phabricator.haskell.org/rGHC6da603213b097a267418d8c14cbfaf0021ac2b2c

It would be great if you also give it a try and test on your systems or with cross-compiling without a need to install SmartOS libraries.

Thanks!
Karel

Hi,

I've tried to cross-compile
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8910
but did not succeed, yet.

There seem to be problems with Int64 and/or Word data types.
The proper start would be to make a careful comparison of the test-suite
results, but there are already failures for the 32bit version (under
Solaris 10). Unfortunately I don't have time to look into it further.

Cheers Christian

Hi Karel,

That is great!

Do you know if there any plans for 64-bit build of GHC for Solaris 11?

Regards,
Pavel
