Research direction

Start by reviewing the changes introduced a few months ago that dropped Mac source builds, then inspect the K pipeline and the haskell-backend, llvm-backend, and K targets. Compare what source building and testing currently cover, and document a decided support outcome with any affected targets identified.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
