W.r.t. GHC ARM I would like to note that basic support is already merged 
into GHC HEAD. Cross-compiling is still missing, but if you can live 
with for example OMAP4/OMAP3/i.MX53 based board for development on 
native ARM/Linux and use ARM/Linux as your robotics platform then it 
should be usable for you already. Please note GHCi support is still 
missing...

Thanks,
Karel
