Hi,

 When compiling some files with --make, some of them were empty, so ghc
 complained:

 <no location info>: file name does not match module name `Main'

 But, since the offending file name is not provided, the problem was
 difficult to correct (I thought the problem was somewhere in Main.hs or
 maybe a compiler bug).

 I tested this with 6.6 on Linux (that gives this error msg) and with
 6.6.1 on Windows (that gives a good error msg, giving the file name).
 Can't switch to 6.6.1 on Linux due to dependency problems of wxhaskell.
