The one important line is
> import Control.Monad.Error
It adds dependancy on mtl package, which is not used by default
(contrary to 'base' package, which includes Monad, System and IO
modules). With --make GHC adds it automatically. Therefore
$ ghc -package mtl ex14.hs
compiles fine. I'd recommend using --make. In rare occasions when
there is a namespace clash between packages one can simply hide
offending packages or specify preferred ones.

Best regards
