Comment (by duncan):

 Parsing ghc's error messages seems like a "Bad Idea"tm.

 A better approach would be to steal the code out of hmake and chase import
 dependencies then use the information from ghc-pkg dump to map that back
 to package names.

 I wonder how the package is actually getting registered at all. I thought
 that it was no longer possible to register packages with unversioned
 dependencies. See ticket #1837. What's going on?
