[Haskell-cafe] ghc6.8: hiding uninstalled package?

This might seem like a silly question, but what's the reasoning behind the
following behaviour?

% ghc-pkg list dataenc
/usr/lib/ghc-6.8.2/package.conf:
% ghc --make -hide-package dataenc -isrc UT.hs
ghc-6.8.2: unknown package: dataenc

Hiding an uninstalled package doesn't seem to warrant failing compilation!
