Keep going after failed search for module in current directory

Inside a package's source directory after the package has been installed, if I type ghci and then import MODNAME, where MODNAME is a module in the package, GHCi throws an error: module main:MODNAME is not loaded, even though MODNAME is part of the package (in its system-installed state). The desired behavior, I think, is to keep on going and realize that MODNAME is a module in an already-installed package, and then load that.
