error msg can be improved: <no location info>: file name does not match module name `Main'
Hi,
When compiling some files with --make, some of them were empty, so ghc complained:
<no location info>: file name does not match module name `Main'
But, since the offending file name is not provided, the problem was difficult to correct (I thought the problem was somewhere in Main.hs or maybe a compiler bug).
I tested this with 6.6 on Linux (that gives this error msg) and with 6.6.1 on Windows (that gives a good error msg, giving the file name). Can't switch to 6.6.1 on Linux due to dependency problems of wxhaskell.
