+# Omit GHCi way because in GHCi there are two IO manager threads, one
+# for GHCi itself and one for the user program.  This is a consequence
+# of the fact that we aren't sharing the base package between GHCi and
+# the user program, and it will change when we switch to shared
+# libraries.  Unfortunately the test hangs if we try to run it under
+# GHCi right now, so we can't just make it an expected failure.
