Severity: normal
joey@kodama:~>runghc -fno-glasgow-exts foo.hs
zsh: exit 127 runghc -fno-glasgow-exts foo.hs
Turns out that -f is overloaded to be the path to the ghc program. (Would be
nice if runghc had a man page, BTW.) The above is its way of indicating that
it failed to run "no-glasgow-exts".
So to specify a -f parameter, some contortions are needed. This doesn't work:
runghc -- -fno-glasgow-exts foo.hs
This works, but *yuck*:
runghc -f/usr/bin/ghc -fno-glasgow-exts foo.hs

Hi Joey,
this now works as documented in the manpage (although its not great):
$ runghc Foo.hs
Hi
$ runghc -fno-glasgow-exts Foo.hs
$ runghc -f no-glasgow-exts Foo.hs
$ runghc -- -f no-glasgow-exts Foo.hs
ghc: unrecognised flags: -f
Usage: For basic information, try the `--help' option.
$ runghc -- -fno-glasgow-exts Foo.hs
on the commandline:
Warning: -fno-glasgow-exts is deprecated: Use individual extensions instead
Hi
Greetings,
Joachim
