 Currently, cabal in MacPorts does not support arm64 either, although the
 project itself has a prebuilt version and can be built under arm64. cabal
 requires ghc as build and run dependency.

 found.

 I think for a start we should add ghc-bootstrap for arm64 architecture,
 with which we can build dependencies for ghc (maybe alex, happy, hscolour)
 and build ghc itself directly.

 This is a lot of work that someone will have to do one day.
