I would expect GHC to be able to compile a program with a function that 
is not called 'main'. I wouldn't expect it to print anything when run, 
but I would expect it to compile.

`ghci fac.hs` doesn't give any errors. I don't understand why loading 
the file like that is ok but typing the entries is not. This might be a 
problem for people exporing the language.

Best,
Daniel.
