Allow Access to generated STG from the GHC API
It would be really nice to be able to either:
- ) access STG from the GHC API and tell the compiler to stop at that point.
- ) be able to dump STG to some sort of separate ".stg" file for further processing.
This would enable other backends to be written, since all the heavy lifting has been done by the point its been converted to the spineless tagless g-machine and that representation is more suitable than Cmm for generating output for languages like JavaScript.
