ghci runs into an exception if there is an error in Foo.hs when there
exists a
Foo.hs-boot (which compiles fine).
- First.hs-boot
{{{
module First where
one :: Int
}}}
- Second.hs
{{{
module Second where
import {-# SOURCE #-} First
two :: Int
two = one + 1
}}}
- First.hs
{{{
module First where
import Second
one :: Int
one = _
}}}
{{{
> ghci
Prelude> :l First
[1 of 3] Compiling First[boot] ( First.hs-boot, interpreted )
[2 of 3] Compiling Second ( Second.hs, interpreted )
[3 of 3] Compiling First ( First.hs, interpreted )
First.hs:6:7: error:
• Found hole: _ :: Int

}}}
This happens on ghc-8.0.1, 8.0.2 and 8.2.1-rc1. The above output is from
8.0.2, but the error seems to be essentially the same on 8.2.1-rc1. It did
not happen on 7.10.3.
While ghci continues to work, the exception appears to clear the loaded-
modules list, which in turn breaks tooling (ghcid here, which hangs as a
consequence). The expected behaviour would be that other modules (which
contain no errors) remain loaded.
