Kazu, Dynamic should be available with anything, including profiling. This is probably more an artifact of your mk/build.mk setup. When you look in there, check carefully which BuildFlavour you have set. The relevant variable is GhcLibWays. For example, BuildFlavour=perf will add 'p' which is pro

Friends, After talking with SPJ, we've decided that the cutoff date for the 7.8 feature window will essentially start on Monday, the 16th. This is the beginning of the week before ICFP. This is a week from tomorrow. Afterwords, I suspect we will cut the 7.8 branch in early October (my notes tenta

This is a slight tangent but, I am always somewhat confused about the release schedule. When reading this, the basic decision seems to come down to when do we cut a release, taking into account factors like reliability/bugs/support/community/other stuff like that. So, IMO, perhaps one thing that's

There have been a few of these bugs recently it seems. If you could: use the stage1 compiler to compile a simple executable, like 'main = return ()' or hello world or whatever. The stage1 compiler can be located in the build directory, under 'inplace/bin/ghc-stage1'. So something like: /inplace/b
