I'm not sure I follow. Edward's --make support is a front-end plugin; as far as I know there has been no discussion of shipping it with GHC-proper. It merely makes use of the new front-end plugin facility. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding something here?
You likely aren't, and I'm probably under-informed. Viewing 'ghc --make' as a core feature of ghc-the-executable, I've assumed Shake (the lib) to be a build-time+run-time requirement.
