Comment(by guest):
I feel like the solution here was a bit overzealous. Now we have to
compile things with -rtsopts just to turn on basic things like -N which
should be reasonably safe.
Can we perhaps back this off to the point of requiring -rtsopts in order
to set filepaths for profiling output, but allow other RTS options by
default?
