Probably I'm very late, and the Nix guys can hopefully workaround this

There are license issues if you want to distribute the resulting stuff.
Have to ask your lawyers about lgpl + gmp + shipping binary only stuff.

Nothing special is needed, actually it's autoselected if no gmp is found
during build. (So e.g. on NixOS, where libraries are not just randomly

Interesting. You're already using the libraries/integer-gmp_CONFIGURE_OPTS
magic that I wanted to advise.
I think you should record the configure and build output, so it's easy
to look around in it afterwards (and don't use -j for make, because then
the output is mixed). I would look for gm

I also have a related request, if someone comes around with great build
system experience. I usually hack on GHC with BUILD_DOCS = NO, and it
always annoys me that the xhtml and co libraries are built even then,
without ever needing those, making my build slower.

Dear GHC gurus,
I've been looking into how GHC uses GMP (with the hidden agenda of
taking the work of replacing it with something that is BSD license
compatible and so can be linked in and shipped statically by default).
I think I more or less understand how GMP memory is managed and how the

Hi,
Here is a status report on how things are going at the moment on the
TemplateHaskell+Annotations issue.
Further discussion happened with Austin and Simon:
- http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8397,
- http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/TemplateHaskell/Annotations
SPJ asked for movin
s taken in the current patches, so we can discuss
alternative ideas, problems and questions openly.
http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/TemplateHaskell/Annotations
Therefore, if you're interested please use this thread, the bug tracker
or the wiki to comment on these issues!
Thanks
