Comment (by maeder):
Summary:
1. Binaries linked against frameworks always find (matching) frameworks in
a user home directory since this is a feature of mac's dynamic linker.
2. Once #1975 is committed ghc should find frameworks for compiling (i.e.
inclusion of header files) and linking user code in a user home directory
by passing the option "`-framework-path $HOME/Library/Frameworks`"
3. To spare the above `-framework-path` option `DriverPipeline.hs` could
be extended or the final ghc shell script generated by
`driver/ghc/Makefile`
4. In order to compile/bootstrap ghc from sources using local frameworks
further additions to `configure.ac`, `readline/configure.ac` and
`libraries/Makefile` (or to cabal) are necessary (see #1395):
`-F$HOME/Library/Frameworks` need to be added to the configure files
`--hsc2hs-options="-C -F$(HOME)/Library/Frameworks" should go into
`libraries/Makefile`
