GHCi's search path

[Peter Gammie]

Hello,

According to the manual:

http://haskell.cs.yale.edu/ghc/docs/latest/html/users_guide/separate-compilation.html#search-path

GHCi is not overly keen to go looking for modules in directories  
different to where the source resides.

The semantics I want is:
  - use the Cabal-built objects/hi files in dist/build if they're  
fresh enough
  - interpret the source otherwise.

Is that possible?

cheers
