#8015: GHC is inconsistent about where LANGUAGE is unsupported.

Consider the following file:
{{{
{-# LANGUAGE NOINLINE foo bar #-}
module Main where
main :: IO ()
main = return ()
}}}
We'd expect this error to occur:
{{{
$ ~/ghc/ghc-work/inplace/bin/ghc-stage2 --interactive /tmp/tester.hs
GHCi, version 7.7.20130624: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help

Loading package base ... linking ... done.
/tmp/tester.hs:1:14: Unsupported extension: NOINLINE

}}}
Now consider:
{{{
module Main where
{-# LANGUAGE NOINLINE foo bar #-}
main :: IO ()
main = return ()
}}}
And:
{{{
~/ghc/ghc-work/inplace/bin/ghc-stage2 --interactive /tmp/tester.hs
GHCi, version 7.7.20130624: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help

}}}
Something like this actually slipped into base and was fixed. See Gabor's
commit 100c051 which fixed it.
I was going to attempt to fix this myself but I (probably rightly) backed
away a little as I understand the code more. This ticket can keep track of
it, regardless of who fixes it.
