 The option '-fno-ghci-sandbox' is mentioned in
 https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/7.0.2/docs/html/users_guide/release-7-0-1.html
 with the following explanation:

   There is a new -fno-ghci-sandbox flag, which stops GHCi running
 computations in a separate thread. In particular, this is useful for GLUT
 on OS X, which only works if being run on the main thread.

 However, it doesn't seem to be documented on the GHC user's guide (search
 box didn't find anything).

 Sorry if I just couldn't find it!
