Just a little.  The following options are used:

        +RTS --make -C -Di386_unknown_linux -O -W -Wall -c -cpp
        -fglasgow-exts -fno-warn-incomplete-patterns -funbox-strict-fields
        -fwarn-unused-binds -fwarn-unused-matches -no-hs-main -o
        -package -v0

most of which are ignorable.  A wrapper for Hugs has to pretend to
generate .o files and executables, which won't be a problem for nhc98.
You'll have to skip a lot more tests, though.

The timeout patch also makes several tests GHC-only; perhaps it could
be wrapped up somehow.  (Not that Hugs doesn't need a timeout sometimes.)
