[Barrelfish-users] Concurrent Haskell on Barrelfish

[Ross McIlroy]

Hi Nick,

The wiki page Calum pointed out has most of the details of things I did to
port Haskell to Barrelfish.  Unfortunately I think I was working from the
head of the GHC repo at the time, so the patches probably don't apply
cleanly to any particular official version of GHC. I've not touched it for
a long time, but if I can be of any help, let me know.

Cheers,
Ross
