    FIX #1838, #1987: change where GHCi searches for config files · f6efe0c7
    Simon Marlow authored
    6.6 behaviour:
      - ./.ghci
      - $HOME/.ghci
    
    6.8.[12] behaviour:
      - ./.ghci
      - Windows: c:/Documents and Settings/<user>/.ghci
      - Unix: $HOME/.ghci
    
    6.10 (and 6.8.3 when this is merged):
      - ./.ghci
      - Windows: c:/Documents and Settings/<user>/Application Data/ghc/ghci.conf
      - Unix: $HOME/.ghc/ghci.conf
      - $HOME/.ghci
    
    We will need to document this in the 6.8.3 release notes because it
    may affect Windows users who have adapted their setup to 6.8.[12].
