Cannot use Template Haskell splice in ghci
I have this module:
{-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell #-}
module A where
foo = [| 3 |]
Now, I do this in ghci:
> :seti -XTemplateHaskell
> :load A.hs
[1 of 1] Compiling A ( A.hs, interpreted )
Ok, modules loaded: A.
> $foo

Loading package template-haskell ... linking ... done.
unknown package: main
The problem is the last line, failing to find the main
package. I can reproduce this issue in 7.8rc1 and in HEAD.
