Comment:

 It's not a GHC bug. It's a problem with the way wxHaskell is built.
 Admitidedly this is due to a slight change in the way GHC manages packages
 but it's not a bug as such, wxHaskell just needs fixing.

 What needs to happen is that the packages must be registered locally
 before they get used in other packages. Also, instead of importing the
 modules from the other package directly from the directory with -i foo/,
 it must be via -package foo.

 So you'll need to get in contact with someone who knows enough about
 wxHaskell's build system to fix it. Try asking on the ghc-users or
 haskell-cafe mailing lists.
