Another interesting idea would be to add a variable GHC_REMINDERS, which
would store a summary of configure flags in human-friendly form, which
could serve as a reminder that we're using type witnesses, profiling, etc.
Something like

[ghc with profiling, no optimization, type witnesses] src/Context.o

where we'd only mention non-default settings.  That'd be cool.  And not too
hard, either.
