runghc is undocumented
make install installs runghc, which is not mentioned anywhere in the user's guide.
So I didn't know whether it was a bug that runghc doesn't work when ghc is compiled without interactive(ghci) support. Also I need to pass --make to runghc in a multi-module program to make runghc work. Also I don't know if there's any GHC flag like ghc --run the way there is ghc --interactive for ghci (should there be? or is the syntax different enough that it would be troublesome?). Also #1312 (closed) and #1281 (closed) are about runghc's behavior...
At least runghc and runghc --help produce
runghc: syntax: runghc [-f GHCPATH] [GHC-ARGS] FILE ARG...
which is clear enough about the syntax, but not exactly the meaning.
