    Provide (unsatisfying) workaround for pesky Ctrl-C issue, whereby a
    cygwin-based bash will terminate the 'ghci.exe' wrapper without the
    wrapper process getting a chance to respond (and shut down its child,
    if nothing else.) The result instead being that the child (ghc.exe) ends up
    lingering in the background.
    
    To steer users away from such badness, the wrapper checks to see whether
    it is running in a *nix-like shell, and if it is, issue a warning that
    it would be better to invoke GHCi using the 'ghcii.sh' shell script instead.
    
    Merge to STABLE.
