No.  Interactive use is only available when HEAD compiles HEAD.

I tested the installation on a Suse 7.1 box here last night.
Yes, there are problems, which we hope to fix.  In the meantime
it is easy to get an install working -- the only issue is
the readline.so problem.  We fixed this by making libreadline.so.3
be a symlink to libreadline.so.4, and then GHCi started up fine.

So I suggest you do that too.

I'll look into the make install-docs problem today.
