Comment (by claus):

 This sounds a bit like untested fallout from the Ghc Api changes, as it
 seems to have been introduced between 20080918 and 20080907. Does this
 help?
 {{{

   Use -v to see a list of the files searched for.

 Test.hs:1:7:

 }}}
 If this hunch is correct, it is probably worth watching out for other
 changes in error- and exception-handling.
