> Does this also work for Template Haskell? Even from Haddock?
No, TH also doesn't work when GHC is built with -prof. I'll check what
happens and make it emit an error message.
> What if I *want* GHCi to support profiling?
There's a fair bit of work to do, and it's not clear it's worth the
effort. The byte code compiler and interpreter have to be modified to
support the different closure representations and other conventions of the
profiling build.
