Comment (by elaforge):
By the way, if the fix is really put off until 8.4.1, it means I'll have
to skip a whole major version! This issue is a show stopper for my
program, and I'd expect for any program that uses the GHC API for a REPL
(maybe not that many, but still, it's a compelling GHC feature for me).
It also makes interactive testing really slow, which for me makes it a
show stopper for my style of development as well.
If people like the "ghci allows but ignores -fhpc and -O" idea, I'd be
happy to give the implementation a shot.
