I have a suggestion: is it better for GHC to report an error on the source of kind {-# "foo" #-} (entered by a typo instead of {-# SCC "foo" #-}) ? Currently, GHC makes the program under (-prof) in which, the "foo" center occurs skipped. This misleads the user: "foo is not in the profiling head, so it takes zero cost".

6.12.1 will warn: q.hs:3:0: Unrecognised pragma by default. Thanks Ian
