I'll just toss this idea out there:

I want to be able to pick a runtime to compile against. Some Ada compilers
allow me to specify a runtime to use with a --RTS flag. This, of course,
also means we'd need to write more runtime variants.

I dropped this on the haskell_proposals reddit for safe keeping/evaluation:
