I think the neater way of doing this would be to use the FFI, with a foreign export declaration making your haskell main available to a wrapper C file, which would then initialise the RTS with a slightly-modified argc and argv. See http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/users_guide/ffi-ghc.html for details on how to do that. I also think it's strange, though, that adding RTS hooks is not optional. GHC should support some method of disabling them, in my opinion. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
