Resolution: wontfix
Status: newclosed

GHC currently does not build with clang. There is a workaround to do it (https://github.com/ghc-ios/ghc-ios-scripts/blob/master/clang-xcode5-wrapper.hs) and a bug reported upstream (https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7678). This should be fixed in GHC 7.8, which will probably be released in Haskell Platform 2014.2.0.0.

I won't be fixing this on our own.
