ticket for adding ARM backend to NCG?

[Carter Schonwald]

I believe there are no current plans to add arm to the ncg.

However, I'm hoping to spend a wee bit of time later this year cleaning up
the ncg, and one consequence of that that simon marlow remarked upon at
icfp is that would perhaps make it easier to add new targets to ncg.

Which arm variant are you thinking of? There's quite a few arm
isa variants.  Also once Ben gamari's current debugging is sorted, we'll
have stage 2 support for arm with ghci tooo.   What's your interest and or
use case?

Cheers
Carter
