[Haskell-iPhone] Can anyone help me test GHC-iOS compiler?

[Luke Iannini]

OK, I'm underway on this.

First roadbump was:

"inplace/bin/ghc-stage1" -static  -H32m -O -Iincludes -Iincludes/dist
-Iincludes/dist-derivedconstants/header
-Iincludes/dist-ghcconstants/header -Irts -Irts/dist/build
-DCOMPILING_RTS -package-name rts -dcmm-lint      -i -irts
-irts/dist/build -irts/dist/build/autogen -Irts/dist/build
-Irts/dist/build/autogen           -O2    -c rts/Apply.cmm -o
rts/dist/build/Apply.o
You are using a new version of LLVM that hasn't been tested yet!
We will try though...

/usr/local/bin/llc: : error: unable to get target for
'arm-apple-darwin10', see --version and --triple.


which I figured out were because the homebrew LLVM 3.4 only includes host
platforms by default (x86/x86-64)
Reinstalling it with all-targets enables them all:
brew install llvm --with-clang --all-targets --HEAD

Trying again now.
