#38465: ghc-bootstrap: universal variant doesn't install universal software
----------------------------+--------------------

Component: ports | Version: 2.1.3
Resolution: fixed | Keywords:
Port: ghc-bootstrap |
----------------------------+--------------------
Comment (by cal@…):
I'm not entirely sure the ghc-bootstrap port affects the architectures ghc
can actually use. Think of a C compiler: A compiler compiled in i386 can
still generate x86_64 code. Somebody would have to evaluate, if this is
actually possible (and if it is, add depends_skip_archcheck ghc-bootstrap
to the ghc port).
Technically it would also be possible to provide a universal ghc-bootstrap
port using lipo and merging. I'm not going to put a lot of effort into
that, though…
