Yeah, sounds about right. I have no illusions about GHC ever supporting IBT considering their compilation model. In related news, I managed to get GHC to use xonly[1]. It produces functional binaries without resorting to --no-execute-only now. It's a bit less pretty than I'd like, but we can polish it up. There are also more tests from ghc testsuite broken in this unloved --disable-tables-next-to-code mode. Maybe we should combine the two tasks and rebuild bootstrap only once?
