There isn't an existing build for your platform, which means you'll have to bootstrap. Also, it looks like a small amount of porting effort will be required (the configure script hasn't recognised the platform, so at least you'll need to add a few obvious lines in there). Full porting instructions are here: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/building/sec-porting-ghc.htm l Bootstrapping generally works quite smoothly, but if you run into problems we're always happy to help. Send us any patches you end up needing.
