You could also touch the module file to force a full reload:

GHCi, version 6.7.20070907: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
Loading package base ... linking ... done.
[1 of 1] Compiling Main             ( Qsort.hs, interpreted )
Ok, modules loaded: Main.
*Main> :! touch Qsort.hs
*Main> :r
[1 of 1] Compiling Main             ( Qsort.hs, interpreted )
Ok, modules loaded: Main.
*Main>
