Comment (by rwbarton):

 According to the ticket description, GHC does generate a warning about the
 unknown pragma `LANUGAGE`; but only when there isn't an error in the
 module.

 I think there is some logic somewhere for not displaying warnings when
 there are also errors to report, on the grounds that the errors are more
 important (and may be the cause of the warnings). However, here clearly
 the warning about `LANUGAGE` is the cause of the consequent errors. We
 should probably have some notion of "important warnings" that get
 displayed even when there are errors to report as well.

 I think this may have been discussed on another ticket as well, which had
 a similar sort of issue; but I can't find it at the moment.
