 With `-dynamic-too` we run the code generator twice and generate two
 object files: `.o` and `.o_dyn`. However the progress messages do not
 reflect that:

 {{{
 $ ghc Main.hs -dynamic-too
 [1 of 1] Compiling Lib              ( Main.hs, Main.o )
 }}}

 I think a better message would be:

 {{{
 [1 of 1] Compiling Lib              ( Main.hs, Main.o, Main.dyn_o )
 }}}
