I'd rather write a MonoHaskell compiler with an LLVM backend using Stephen Diehl's material[1] and make it something real that people can hack on and play with.
The people that held the anti-FTP position (Augustsson, others) reportedly found the site funny at the time. I was prepared to take it down if they'd been upset, but they weren't. I heard good arguments against the proposal (particularly from Cale), but nothing compelling enough to justify increasing the already disconcerting distance between commercial Haskell practices and what beginners are shown in the Prelude.
