dph does ship with 6.10, but only part of it - DPH is essentially split into two libraries (at the moment). the library that ships with the main distributable is labeled 'convenience without the speed', and has language extensions for nested data parallelism - but the code actually always executes sequentially! (this is not according to me, but rather to the official website for DPH). <br>
<br>we're trying to get a working build of the other part of DPH, labeled 'speed without the convenience' - our goal here is rudimentary performance testing - which doesn't ship with the main distribution of ghc. this is the part that we're having such trouble compiling. i've tried contacting roman about this but haven't been able to get a response from him. <br>

</div></div>DPH ships with GHC 6.10 -- you shouldn't need to rebuild it?<br>
