Homebrew for Haskell!

It's now quite easy to get Haskell and LLVM to install and play together on Mac OS X! Following some of the advise from here, you first need to remove your existing Haskell Platform and packages:

> sudo /Library/Frameworks/GHC.framework/Tools/Uninstaller
> rm -rdf ~/.ghc
> rm -rdf ~/.cabal

If you don't already have Homebrew installed, go ahead and do that.

Now for the fun! (Although pour yourself a cup of coffee as this takes a while...)

> brew install llvm --universal

Note that the "--universal" option is critical! If you don't specify this, the LLVM Haskell library will not build. Note: you may also wish to specify "--with-clang" if you'd like to simultaneously build clang as well.

> brew install haskell-platform

> cabal update

> cabal install llvm

> ghci

Prelude> :m LLVM.Core
Prelude LLVM.Core>

Viola!
