    GHC Whole Program Compiler and External STG IR tooling

    • If I understand the new GHCJS backend correctly, it diverges from the normal compilation pipeline at STG (see the new StgToJS module subtree). Wouldn't that make it an excellent candidate to use GHC-WPC's machine-readable external STG representation, instead of hooking it directly into the GHC source tree?
