Either of the second two options for the syntax. As for where you put it,
it can either go on the command line, or in the source like this:
{-# OPTIONS -#include "foo.h" #-}
at the top of the file, before any Haskell code. These OPTIONS pragmas are
useful for options that relate specifically to this source file, such as
-fglasgow-exts, -fallow-undecidable-instances,
-fno-warn-overlapping-patterns and so on.
