Well, C code + haskell of course.

Looks pretty good so far, so I'll plan to tag a release candidate on the
weekend and, if all goes well, a final release a few days after that.

Ah, I see this in the current `ghc` portfile. No doubt the solution:
# fix DejaVu texlive fonts names, e.g. "\setmonofont{DejaVu Sans Mono}"
foreach f "\
${srcpath}/${distname}/libraries/Cabal/Cabal/doc/conf.py \
${srcpath}/${distname}/docs/users_guide/conf.py \
" {
reinplace -E
I'm working on making a newer bootstrap version of ghc for SnowLeopard.
The ghc 8.0.1 build finishes on 10.6.8, but it wants to build the PDF
documentation next, and texlive is erroring building the PDF.
I know nothing about texlive. I know I might turn off the docs, but -- it took
many hours

Hi,
I hope I didn't ask this before:
Is there a way to let command line options like the ones in the subject apply
to all ports on the command line, instead of only to the one given just before
of the option in question?
Thanks,
R.
