Hi,

I couldn't find any build instructions in the README. Are there any docs for building that I've missed?

I'm using cabal version 0.10.2 and ghc 7.0.4 and I got

Linking dist/build/visi/visi ...
ld: warning: could not create compact unwind for .LFB3: non-standard register 5 being saved in prolog
Undefined symbols for architecture i386:

ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture i386
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
Visi-0.1 failed during the building phase. The exception was:
ExitFailure 1

I understand from the dependency on ghc-iphone that my version of ghc might be too new, but it would be good to have a comprehensive "This is how you get set up" document.

Cheers - looks like a very interesting project!
