Comment (by bgamari):
Indeed this sounds reasonable to me. The only possible issue is that it
would also be no longer possible to link against the `ghci` library that
ships with GHC (since it depends upon `haskeline`). However, I suspect
this won't be a problem since GHC is more-or-less a normal Haskell package
which `Cabal` should be able to install on its own.
