revertCAFs and -fexternal-interpreter

Hello devs,
I noticed that in ghc/GHCi/UI.hs, the calls to 'revertCAFs' are made in the
compiler's RTS instead of the interpreter's RTS. When
-fexternal-interpreter is on this distinction is visible, otherwise they
are one and the same so it works as intended.
Shouldn't there be a RevertCAFs data constructor in
`libraries/ghci/GHCi/Message.hs` to tell the interpreter process to revert
the CAFs in its heap?
Thanks,
Rahul Muttineni
