It would be nice if GHC could emit java bytecode - java VMs seem to available for most of platforms. There even seems to be some code for this in GHC's

I have modern jvms on fewer machines than I have ghc running at the moment. I find the ocaml vm to be much easier to port than the java vm. Of course, everywhere I've built the ocaml vm, I've also built the native compiler, so I haven't really used it.

I do agree that getting ghc running in more places would be the biggest win, though. I like that people are slowly getting away from the idea that all programming has to be system programming.
