Comment (by maeder):

 The two files `compiler/main/DriverPipeline.hs` and `utils/hsc2hs/Main.hs`
 are not ready for check in. Both files miss catching an error of
 `getHomeDirectory` and the relevant parts of `utils/hsc2hs/Main.hs` should
 be put between cpp directives. (I'm also not sure if the use of
 `getHomeDirectory` prevents ghc being bootstrapped with some earlier ghc
 versions.)

 {{{
 #ifdef darwin_TARGET_OS
     hdir <- IO.try getHomeDirectory
 #endif
 }}}

 Only after these changes it makes sense to check in
 `readline/configure.2.ac`.
