Something that I would personally very much enjoy is a clear and unmistakable warning from configure when editline is not found. After installing libedit-devel (my ghci-6.10.1 finally has comfortable editing now), I checked config.log; there's not even a mention of libedit capabilities. Maybe a general summary at the end of configure of all the optional capabilities that were or were not configured. As an inspiration, look at gtk2hs' configure output.
Good idea - I've added it to the list of things to do in the new build system. Cheers, Simon
