The file name contains O-umlaut,
and the OS handles it fine, but ghci does not like it
(although it accepts umlauts in the contents of the file
(UTF-8) e.g., as a module name)
{{{
$ cat fÖÖbar.hs
main = print $ product [1..100]
$ ghci fÖÖbar.hs
GHCi, version 7.4.1: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help
Loading package ghc-prim ... linking ... done.
Loading package integer-gmp ... linking ... done.
Loading package base ... linking ... done.
<no location info>: can't find file: f??bar.hs
Failed, modules loaded: none.
}}}
this is on a standard ubuntu install (11.10 and 11.04) with
{{{
$ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
...
$ ghc --version
