 compiler/deSugar/Coverage.lhs:
 {{{
 addCoverageTicksToBinds dflags mod mod_loc tyCons binds = do
   let orig_file =
              case ml_hs_file mod_loc of
                     Just file -> file
                     Nothing -> panic "can not find the original file
 during hpc trans"
 }}}
 Is there any reason for this function to panic? It is the only function
 (at least in my use-case) of the GHC API that panics on ms_hs_file =
 Nothing. I suggest to handle this more graceful and return emptyHpcInfo
 and emptyModBreaks just as in the case of file ending in .boot
