I've seen unexpected compiles using ghc --make. I've got a system with modules A, B, and C; A depends on B and B depends on C. I've seen the following sequence of events: I change C ghc --make A compiles C, B, and A I change A ghc --make A skips C and compiles B and A I don't know of any reason why it would have compiled B in the second case. If this is not a known bug, I can try to reproduce it and submit a formal bug report.
