64bit Solaris was: Re: 7.8.1 plan

[Christian Maeder]

Hi,

I've tried to cross-compile
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8910
but did not succeed, yet.

There seem to be problems with Int64 and/or Word data types.
The proper start would be to make a careful comparison of the test-suite 
results, but there are already failures for the 32bit version (under 
Solaris 10). Unfortunately I don't have time to look into it further.

Cheers Christian
