 I just ran into a stack overflow in an application, and GHC told me:

 Stack space overflow: current size 8388608 bytes.
 Use `+RTS -Ksize -RTS' to increase it.

 I tried to specify +RTS and got an error saying "Most RTS options are
 disabled. Link with -rtsopts to enable them."

 The runtime should not suggest using +RTS when that is not possible.
