* FIX #1838, #1987: change where GHCi searches for config files
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].
