Comment (by thomie):
If the `.hs` file exists, GHC doesn't check for the `.lhs` file. I didn't
make that clear.
There is no difference between `ghc` and `ghc --make`: `--make` is the
default mode. There is a difference between `-c` and `--make`.
It would help if you described how you would like this caching mechanism
to work, and how it would help with suggesting the correct spelling when a
module is not found. Use the example from the description, or a different
example if that makes things more clear. Don't worry too much about how
GHC currently works; we can get back to that afterwards.
