+# In emergency situations, REAL_SHELL is used to perform shell commands
+# from within the ghc driver script, by scribbling the command line to
+# a temp file and then having $(REAL_SHELL) execute it. 
+#
+# The reason for having to do this is that overly long command lines
+# cause unnecessary trouble with some shells (e.g., /bin/sh on Solaris
+# 2.5.1), which is why this backdoor is provided. The situation of overly
+# long command lines is either encountered while doing `make boot' in ghc/compiler, 
+# or when linking the compiler binary (`hsc'). 
+#
+# We do not use SHELL to execute long commands, as `make' will more than likely
+# override whatever setting you have in your environment while executing. 
+
+# By default, REAL_SHELL is set equal SHELL, which is not really a smart move
+# as it SHELL that will show up the bogosity in the first place, but setting
+# it to anything else isn't really portable.
+#
+#  ====> If long command lines cause you trouble, invoke `ghc' (via `make' or otherwise)
+# with REAL_SHELL set to something else than /bin/sh, for instance, your favourite
+# command shell.
