Summary: :i wrongly claims "Imported from ..."
Initial Comment:
Mostly cosmetic mix-up:
Prelude> :m GHC.Exception
Prelude GHC.Exception> :i System.IO.Error.catch
catch :: IO a -> (IOError -> IO a) -> IO a
-- Imported from GHC.Exception
The catch described is not the same on as imported from
GHC.Exception.

Actually, System.IO.Error.catch is indeed the same as
GHC.Exception.catch.
It might be better if GHCi printed out the reason that
something is in scope, rather than its defining module,
maybe, but otherwise this looks ok to me.
I'm leaving it open to remind us to think abou the question of
what might be the most helpful location to give .
