-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
'ghc --help' suggests the use of -auto-all (see below), but according to
[#r1 [1]], "-fprof-auto was known as -auto-all prior to GHC 7.4.1." I
assume this means that GHC >= 7.4.1 should not mention -auto-all, and that
-fprof-auto should be suggested instead.
{{{
$ ghc --help
...
-prof Compile for cost-centre profiling
(add -auto-all for automagic cost-centres on all
top-level functions)
...
}}}
