Their specs are seem to be comparable to the Odroid XU4 which I use for my own builds, which barely passes.

Let's chat about cross-compilation once that happens. Don't hesitate to remind me in a few weeks.

Just ask for account on GNU GCC Compile Farm. They do have X-gene V1 machine in the farm, pretty powerful box especially in comparison with my pandaboard. I for example keep running POWER7 buildbot for GHC there. Cheers, Karel ___ ghc-devs mailing list ghc-devs@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ghc-devs

The other option for ARM/Linux and AArch64/Linux is cross-compile builds. Just building GHC as a cross-compiler for these targets would shave out a lot of bugs. Let me know if you're interested. Its really pretty easy to set up on a Debian or Ubuntu system.
