<div><br></div>I installed it on my mac (OS X 10.7.2, XCode 4.1) without any issues (using bindist, not pkg). Is upgrading to XCode 4.2 ok from GHC perspective (more specifically, runtime performance of code compiled by GHC)? I have seen some discussion of Clang causing issues for GHC, but it was about compiling GHC RTS using gcc instead of llvm-gcc. XCode 4.2 has only llvm-gcc, it seems. But, as long as I use GHC bindist, that shouldn't matter.<div>
<br></div><div>The reason I am asking is I want to try LLVM backend but GHC keeps complaining about missing llvm tools (opt, llc). I checked LLVM webpage but couldn't find information about how to determine what llvm tools are installed on my Mac. My guess is XCode 4.1 comes with llvm backend for GCC, but not standalone LLVM tools that GHC needs, and that upgrading to XCode 4.2 would give me LLVM 3.0 tools as well. Please correct me if I got it wrong.<div>

Ah, sorry, I should have said:<br>
<br>
The OS X installer (and the bindist) is known to work on OS X 10.7.2<br>
with Xcode 4.1, and will not work with some older versions (I don't know<br>
if it's older versions of OS X or of XCode that cause problems).<br>
<br>
If you build GHC yourself on an older version, then the result should<br>
work.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
