I'm using GHC 6.6.1. The manual says:
"Pragmas all take the form {-# word ... #-} where word indicates the
type of pragma, and is followed optionally by information specific to
that type of pragma. Case is ignored in word."
However, when I use "Language CPP" instead of "LANGUAGE CPP" in the
pragma, the pragma is ignored. Is this a documentation bug?
To test the problem, one can use "ghc --make testpragma1.hs" and "ghc
--make testpragma2.hs" on the following:
