Just to make sure: the "Could not find module `HTMLMonadBase'..." is entirely reasonable (and my package.conf is crap), it's the "ghc: panic!" I found worrying.
Yes, we plan to fix the panic and emit a more helpful message.
Fine!
Anyway. Let me drift off topic: why no ghcOptions field in package.conf? I'd perhaps try porting Wash if it were present...
The ability to specify extra GHC options in a package was a misfeature that we removed. It isn't reasonable for a package to be able to change the global GHC behaviour.
I see. But why did hugsOptions remain, then? -- Feri.
