 I'm trying to debug some issues in GHC build system and its pretty
 annoying when I change some variable value in mk/config.mk and when I try
 to verify this by
 {{{
 make show VALUE=<var name>
 }}}
 it starts a build of ghc-stage1 compiler. Is that really needed? IMHO this
 looks like a bug as after running configure all variables in makefiles
 should be constant...
