@mmu_man @jeremy_list it needs bootstrapping from an older ghc version. Jessicah did it but only for 32 bit, her steps should be replicated on 64 bit (first make a cross compiler, package it, and use it to build newer versions).
Unless people from GUIX figured out how to bootstrap Haskell in other ways since then?

@pulkomandy @mmu_man there are vague instructions for cross-compiling GHC at https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/wikis/building/cross-compiling which I will attempt to follow when I have time.
