Comment (by thomie):

 Perhaps apply this commit: bdc555885b8898684549eca70053c9ce0ec7fa39
 {{{
 Author: Thomas Miedema <thomasmiedema at gmail.com>
 Date:   Wed May 25 13:01:42 2016 +0200

     Testsuite: introduce TEST_HC_OPTS_INTERACTIVE (#11468)

     Refactoring only.
 }}}

 Or define `TEST_HC_OPTS_INTERACTIVE = $(TEST_HC_OPTS) --interactive -v0
 -ignore-dot-ghci` in `testsuite/mk/test.mk`.
