-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
9 months ago, I opened #15806, which was about documenting when -hT can be
used. Ben created some patches to resolve this, but with GHC 8.6.3, I find
the behavior is identical to 8.4.2, namely:
* -hT is disallowed for executables built with profiling
* the docs make no mention of this
* when profiling is enabled, the list of options for heap profiling make
no mention of -hT, making me question my sanity.
Ben apparently fixed all of these, but perhaps it never got merged?
