Comment (by osa1):

 I have another idea. I think we can't start a GHCi process just by using
 `base`
 from a Haskell program, right? So that part of the scheduler can only be
 run in
 `ghc-stage2`. Why not just `ifdef` those parts so that that block in the
 scheduler and `interpretBCO` would be defined only when compiling RTS for
 `ghc-stage2`? Would that be too much extra compilation?
