Should not happen, if it does there is a bug. Can you tell us how to repeat the behaviour you're seeing? We aren't seeing any unecessary recompilation here. > 6.2 and up: The object file is named after the module, not after the > source file as in 5.04.

The behaviour is clearly specified in the user's guide: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/users_guide/separate-compila tion.html#output-files the behaviour has been through several revisions before we arrived at this, and I'm not keen to change it. You can have several Main modules in the same directory if you don't use -odir. If you do use -odir, then you need to use a different value for -odir for each different program. Alternatively use -main-is, as Bulat suggested (actually this is better, IMO).
