Hi ghc-devs, When upgrading my dev tool to use the 8.8.x api I have found that calls to lookupModule / findModule are failing on uncompilable code, whereas these calls succeeded on 8.4 and 8.6. Unlike another question that I have asked [1] which seems related, I don't intend to do any typechecking here, I only want access to the ModuleInfo. Has this been an intentional change? Is there a way to recover the original behaviour? If I cannot get this to work then it means that a new feature introduced in https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/merge_requests/1541 that I was quite excited about is unusable :-( [1] https://mail.haskell.org/pipermail/ghc-devs/2020-February/018655.html
