The glorious glasgow haskell compilation system (ghc) is a compiler for haskell.
haskell is "the" standard lazy functional programming language. the language definition and additional documentation can be found in the `haskell-doc' package. alternatively, there is an online version at http://haskell.org/onlinereport/.
this package has dynamically linkable, shared versions of the libraries included with ghc. currently, they are available only on i386 and amd64 architectures.
