`make install` installs runghc, which is not mentioned anywhere in the
 user's guide.

 So I didn't know whether it was a bug that runghc doesn't work when ghc is
 compiled without interactive(ghci) support.  Also I need to pass --make to
 runghc in a multi-module program to make runghc work.  Also I don't know
 if there's any GHC flag like `ghc --run` the way there is `ghc
 --interactive` for ghci (should there be? or is the syntax different
 enough that it would be troublesome?).  Also #1312 and #1281 are about
 runghc's behavior...

 At least `runghc` and `runghc --help` produce
 {{{runghc: syntax: runghc [-f GHCPATH] [GHC-ARGS] FILE ARG...}}}
 which is clear enough about the ''syntax'', but not ''exactly'' the
 meaning.
