nhc98 does actually ship with hsc2hs, but it currently gets used only
during building.  It is not installed, in order to avoid conflict with
the ghc-shipped tool of the same name.

Is 'update-alternatives' a command name?  If so, I can confirm that it
doesn't exist on MacOS X.  Probably something like the gcc_select
mechanism would be needed to switch between default compilers.  (But I
don't know how that is implemented.)
