We are proud to announce &os; Haskell Team has updated the + Haskell Platform to 2013.2.0.0, GHC to 7.6.3, as well as updated + existing ports to their latest stable versions. In this update, + we provided experimental support for LLVM-based code generation + (disabled by default) to Haskell ports. We also added number of + new ports, which brings their count in &os; Ports Collection to + 402, and now Haskell ports play nicer with + portmaster(8)-based upgrades.

+ +

In cooperation with Konstantin Belousov and Dimitry Andric, we + have managed to unbreak build of GHC on 32-bit 10.x systems, so + we have packages for 10.x again. However, it turned out that + this bug (in thread signal delivery) can also affect the + building process for other platforms as well, which explains + some of the strange build breakages our users experienced in the + past.

+ +

We have also learned that there is an ongoing work + in GHC upstream which will allow us to provide support for + building with Clang natively once GHC 7.8 becomes part of + the Haskell Platform.
