 Files: `/tmp/e/A.hs`, `/tmp/e/dep.c`. Current dir: `/tmp/e`.

 `ghc -odir /tmp/xyzzy A.hs dep.c`: works as expected, puts `dep.o` in
 `/tmp/xyzzy`.

 But try to prefix either `A.hs` or `dep.c` (or both) with `/tmp/e/`, and
 suddenly `dep.o` is put in `/tmp/e`, not in `/tmp/xyzzy`.

 Couldn't check with 8.2.1 yet.
