-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------
 The change to the new-code-generator seems to have broken the LLVM
 backend's ability to bootstrap GHC. This should be fixed, especially as
 ARM support is only provided by LLVM.

 '''NOTE''': The testing of this is all currently done on '''Mac OS X
 10.8'''. Although we will expand to test other platforms once OSX is
 working.
