We don't have an installable tree or root images yet, we're still in the process of rebuilding all F-11 packages on s390x. The latest build attempt of mlton failed because the htmldoc package doesn't exist yet and the bootstrap flag wasn't set: http://s390.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=56256
As hercules is too slow to build packages (in my opinion), you'd better wait for the htmldoc package and then use the koji builders to bootstrap your package:
SECONDARY_CONFIG=" -c ~/.koji/s390-config " make build
Thanks, Karsten.
As mlton is actually a compiler for SML and has never been built on s390x to my knowledge, I need to set up an emulated environment (or get access to a real environment) and do some cross compiling first to get it bootstrapped. There is even a tiny bit of assembly that might be needed.
Also, do you happen to know if the s390x target supports ieee 754 floating point? That is one of the main issues I have had with getting mlton working on ARM.
IBM System Z has IEEE 754 floating point support starting with the z9 and with the new z10 those are integrated into the processor cores properly. So that shouldn't be an issue.
Hope that helps,
