Comment (by SimonHengel):

 The {{{saveStaticFlagGlobals}}}/{{{restoreStaticFlagGlobals}}} was added
 by me 1 1/2 years ago, so that you can run {{{createInterfaces}}} several
 times within the same process.  The motivation for this was to be able to
 run Doctests test suite from GHCi and rerun after {{{:reload}}}.

 Doctest is not depending on Haddock anymore, but we now have similar code
 in Doctest (https://github.com/sol/doctest-
 haskell/blob/master/src/GhcUtil.hs).
