 While trying to debug the issue in
 https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11981#comment:10 I found that that
 `ghc-iserv` executable run without any arguments fails with a pattern
 match failure:

 {{{
 $ inplace/lib/bin/ghc-iserv
 ghc-iserv: user error (Pattern match failure in do expression at
     iserv/src/Main.hs:28:3-18)
 }}}

 Would be far nicer if it printed out an error message saying what
 arguments it expected, or how to run it to avoid this pattern match
 failure.
