hmm the infinite recursion is an unsatisfying state of affairs for attempting to cross to Darwin. Is it just a matter of unraveling things or does the infinite recursion result from a known problem re:bootstrapping?

hmm bootstrapping up a build env for darwin is awfully tricky! haha
<dtz>
so maybe it's just fallout of the way things are, looks like need some buildPlatform == Darwin bits to make things work (xcode)?
<dtz>
okay. My ALLVM fork is a bit old BUT I regularly build all-the-things with LLVM 4, 5, and recently 6 haha so either I've seen it or it's an issue I'll have to solve when I update xD

(although I've been blitzing on upstreaming and prep'ing to make public since private fork is sadface lol)
<dtz>
speaking of which, cancels weekly rebuild-using-latest-LLVM job to alleviate some build pressure lol
<dtz>
soon we can all live in {gcc,llvm}x{cross,native}x<platforms> harmony together!

nixos is going to support musl libc too?
<dtz>
yep! Well we'll see if I can convince folks to accept/merge it, and if by "support" you mean "dtzWill will help you best he can" ;) then yes
<dtz>
but with cross support in much better shape and glibc becoming more compliance-oriented.... fingers crossed! :)
<mitchty>
heh gotcha
<mitchty>
most of the reason i use alpine linux is so I can build actual static binaries
<mitchty>
vs "static" binaries with glibc that still have dlopen() calls
<dtz>
xD. Hopefully have good news for you there.. soon (tm).
<dtz>
and agreed
<dtz>
although NixOS is pretty strongly in favor of dynamic-linking and shared libraries
<dtz>
but one thing at a time :)
<mitchty>
eh, i'm now the ghc maintainer in alpine linux, all because i wanted a static pandoc binary :)
<mitchty>
so i can wait
<LnL>
lol
<mitchty>
dtz: those that know me know im the opposite, i think dynamic libraries are an abomination, but religious views aside more musl libc is always good
