Comment (by maeder):
Could some check in my changes to `compiler/ghci/Linker.lhs` (attached)
which I need for `ghci -package readline`? The diff is:

(I just see that the file uses tabs). My addition allows to find a
framework in a users home directory.
My attached configure.ac is also needed for building ghc with frameworks
under $HOME. (I'm just trying if `compiler/main/DriverPipeline.hs` can be
extended with `-F$HOME/Library/Frameworks`.)
