The exact command line I'm using is..
 ghc --make -fglasgow-exts -Wall -o Main.exe Main.hs Fill.o Render.o
which gives..
 ghc-5.04.2: chasing modules from: Main.hs,Fill.o,Render.o
 ghc-5.04.2: can't find module `Fill.o' (while processing "Fill.o")

But playing about a bit, I found the solution. It doesn't like
upper case object file names. Not sure if that's by design or an
oversight. I've changed them to lower case and it works fine now.
