It's because ghc has a different program name (ghc-stage2 vs ghc)
depending on whether it is in in-tree GHC or not.

The testsuite would normalise this on stderr, but ghc/InteractiveUI.hs
showException is printing the exception on stdout. I didn't get as far
as working out whether that's the right thing for it to do or not.


Thanks
