Comment:
statically typed, imperative programming language
Description:
Nim is a statically typed, imperative programming language that tries
to give the programmer ultimate power without compromises on runtime
efficiency. This means it focuses on compile-time mechanisms in all
their various forms.
Beneath a nice infix/indentation based syntax with a powerful (AST
based, hygienic) macro system lies a semantic model that supports a soft
realtime GC on thread local heaps. Asynchronous message passing is used
between threads, so no "stop the world" mechanism is necessary. An
unsafe shared memory heap is also provided for the increased efficiency
that results from that model.

available that might be buildable with ghc-7.10 and newer
gtk2hs-buildtools, I want to get rid of the latter, and
people could still build it with cabal-install.

We're enabling this now so people can test and eventual regressions
can be catched and reported upstream.
There's a bug opened on Bugzilla@Mozilla:

OK landry@, sthen@
deraadt@ also agrees
I think this matches the intent of the comment above, and avoids producing
flavours for various ports (games, etc) where it doesn't make sense to
support multiple versions of lua. Makes sense to jasper@, and it doesn't
produce any unexpected changes to 'dump-vars' output across the tree.
Thanks to Pascal de Bruijn from darktable for letting me know about the
forthcoming darktable release and identifying this as an issue with
the port.
