Comment (by guest):

 Actually, I just remembered - this could be useful in Darcs as well.
 Currently Darcs's configure script generates a bunch of files with
 different module & FFI imports (corresponding to various functionalities
 to enable/disable) and sees whether they compile; if GHC returned a non-
 zero exit code on failed compilation of stdin, then that would simplify
 things a little bit.
