Well, I gave it a blast anyway. All went well creating the hc files until the
last command:
> $ make hc-file-bundle Project=Ghc
at which point it failed with
tar czf ghc-6.4.1-x86_64-unknown-linux-hc.tar.gz `cat hc-files-to-go`
tar: ghc-6.4.1/ghc/rts/AutoApply_thr.hc: Cannot stat: No suc
Ok, so now we know its possible! Now the question is how to create and use a
_registered_ hc file bundle.
The Build manual describes the process of cross compiling an _unregistered_ hc
file bundle, but has nothing to say about creating the simpler registered hc
file bundle for the purpose of boo

A couple of reasons, neither of which is very convincing:
1. the HC files

Most distros are using binary bootstrapping. I think OpenBSD is the only

I'm glad to hear it, we might switch. Gentoo users ought to

I run a source based linux distro called Heretix, and I want to make a ghc
package which will install with or without an existing ghc. At the moment, we
supply a binary-ghc package, whch is a prerequisite of the from-source ghc
package.
It seems to me that I can prepare HC tarballs for my targe
