Comment (by jsch):
I had used the ghc-paths sources for installing the module with another
GHC version before, so that should explain the old interface files (and
why it worked with "cabal install" which downloaded fresh sources to
/tmp).
I guess I simply assumed the compiler would handle incompatible .hi and .o
files by itself (by simply recompiling) as it does for changed source
files. Anyway, I did not think about it, otherwise I would have cleaned
the directory first (and probably not tickled this in the first place).
(works for me now that I know why it happens)
