I think you're right. GHC allows you to specify flags for the runtime
system using something like this:
wc -RTS -H10k +RTS -al *.c
The "-RTS ... +RTS" stuff is seen by the runtime system and the "-al
*.c" stuff is seen by calls to "System.getArgs".
Sadly, we're kinda busy here at the moment - so I don't see much
chance of this change making it into the next release (unless someone
contributes some code...). Maybe by the end of the summer?
