 Running ":l Main.hs" at the GHCI prompt would load the compiled module. I
 am new to Haskell and this was a stumbling block that made it so that I
 could not interactively debug my code with GHCI. Deleting the object files
 was suggested to me on IRC and that allowed me to get the "*Main" prompt I
 was looking for. A message warning users "reusing compiled code" would
 likely save some future users some time.
