It sounds wrong to me, although it is surprising that there aren't any
tests covering this.A quick search of the lexer reveals that GHC.Parser.Lexer.mkParserOpts takes an argument which dictates whether LINE and COLUMN pragmas update the lexer's source location or are instead just emitted in the lexeme stream. That being said, `GHC.Driver.Config.Parser.initParserOpts` seems to pass `True` here, which should update the source location. Were you testing with GHC or are you using the GHC API? Cheers, - Ben
