Summary: --make and -main-is don't work together

Initial Comment:
The --make option doesn't take into account the
presence of a -main-is option; if a Main module isn't
present, it won't link, and if one is present (but
would not be used as the entry point because of
-main-is), linking fails with:

Linking ...
/usr/lib/ghc-6.2/libHSrts.a(Main.o)(.text+0xe): In
function `main':
: undefined reference to `__stginit_ZCMain'
/usr/lib/ghc-6.2/libHSrts.a(Main.o)(.text+0x28): In
function `main':
: undefined reference to `ZCMain_main_closure'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Still getting this with 6.4:

/usr/lib/ghc-6.4/libHSrts.a(Main.o)(.text+0xe): In function
`main':
: undefined reference to `__stginit_ZCMain'
/usr/lib/ghc-6.4/libHSrts.a(Main.o)(.text+0x28): In function
`main':
: undefined reference to `ZCMain_main_closure'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

after executing ghc with '-main-is MyModule.Main.main' and
'--make'
