LoadAllTargets not loading dependencies

Hi Artem,

You're quite right, because when I tried to minimise this I discovered
that it is actually a cabal env file bug! It seems that cabal v2-exec
produces different env files depending on if -w is used or not, and the
one I was using is the broken one.
