Ah, indeed it does! Then, more about GHC API: "Shell: Shell: missing -B<dir> option"
I can't find any information of what this -B is, it is not in GHC sources or anything helpful from google.
The -B is used from a ghc shell script to identify where the rest of the GHC installation resides. An example with a GHC 6.8.2 installed in $HOME/tn/install/ghc-6.8.2:
tn@linux:~> cat tn/install/ghc-6.8.2/bin/ghc #!/bin/sh GHCBIN=/home/tn/tn/install/ghc-6.8.2/lib/ghc-6.8.2/ghc-6.8.2 TOPDIROPT=-B/home/tn/tn/install/ghc-6.8.2/lib/ghc-6.8.2 exec $GHCBIN $TOPDIROPT ${1+"$@"} tn@linux:~>
There is likely some designation for this option that I cannot recall. If it is documented anywhere, I haven't noticed.
