>These flags are static in the sense that they can be set only once and they
are global, meaning that they affect every instance of GHC running;
multiple GHC threads will use the same flags.
</P

>This function must be called before any session is started, i.e., before
the first call to GHC.withGhc.

>Static flags are more of a hack and are static for more or less historical
reasons. In the long run, most static flags should eventually become
dynamic flags.
