Comment:

 Post-processing could be done just by taking stderr, rather than requiring
 any GHC support. I don't think it's worth implementing this until someone
 has actually written such a postprocessor, to show that there is some
 demand.

 I think if you want to do this, you would be better off using the GHC API
 and getting the errors as a datatype. To really get good errors, you'd
 probably need to integrate even more closely with GHC.
