[Haskell-iPhone] Hey Stephen - more on cross compiling

[Stephen Blackheath [to GHC-iPhone]]

Stephen,

In ARM we don't have ghci support. Some parts of the build require it, 
particularly dph. In GHC-iOS I commented out the last four lines of 
'packages' that pertain to dph. The top-level ghc.mk may also contain 
other tweaks.
