Although it's not actually new; before you had to list all the modules
in package.conf.in. With the old system I suspect it wouldn't go wrong
until a GHC API client tried to import a module that you'd left out,
though.

As Duncan says, Cabal will eventually be fixed to fail even earlier.

Or "ghc -M" for GHC's build system.
