`--with-ghc` flag produces error

Summary

Using the --with-ghc flag to specify a GHC usable by ./configure after installing a development snapshot produces an error.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Run make install on master's HEAD
  2. Run ./configure --with-ghc=<usable-ghc>, where <usable-ghc> is the path to a version of GHC that is not a development snapshot.

Expected behavior

You should see configure: error: --with-ghc=<usable-ghc> is obsolete (use './configure GHC=<usable-ghc>' or 'GHC=<usable-ghc> ./configure' instead)

Environment

Optional:
