[Haskell] GHC: Setting default +RTS options at compile time?

Is there any way to specify at compile/link time default options for GHC
program +RTS options?
I'm using the latest release (6.4).

Why do I want this? I'm using GHC to write a program that will be used by
non-comp uting people to preprocess some data in conjunction with an 18Mb
database file. To load the database into a Data.Map value requires more
than GHC's default 256Mb of heap, and I'd like to increase the program's
default heap size, rather than telling users to use the +RTS -M100M option,
as its one less thing to get wrong. There are of course other possible
solutions, but in this case specifying a default heap size at compile time
seems to be the most natural.
