Comment (by igloo):

 The logic for printing the ghc and ghci usage messages was inverted; I've
 fixed that.

 However, the ghci case will never actually happen with the current code,
 as we print a usage message when cli_mode == ShowUsage and choose the
 ghci usage message if cli_mode == DoInteractive.

 We should overhaul the option handling, probably using the standard
 library, so that the same code handles static and dynamic options, and
 also generates the documentation; the above issue should be fixed at the
 same time.
