  Log:
  Clean up GHC's error reporting.
  
    - the GhcException type has some more constructors: CmdLineError,
      UserError, and InstallationError.  OtherError has gone.
  
    - most error messages should begin with "<location>:".  When the
      error is on the command-line or in GHC itself, <location> is
      "ghc", for consistency with std Unix semantics.
  
    - GHCi no longer prints a superfluous "ghc: " before certain error
      messages.
