 Now that we have the capability of producing code with DWARF symbols, we
 should distribute GHC with them, or at least give the option.

 The DWARF symbols in these case would be both for the C RTS and for the
 base Haskell libraries shipped with GHC.  Building GHC with said symbols
 amounts to adding

 {{{
 GhcRtsHcOpts += -g
 GhcLibHcOpts += -g
 }}}

 to `mk/build.mk`.
