How to make Prelude.read: no parse more verbose ...

Hi,

I try to debug some existing Haskell-Code. Out of the blue I get a
'progname: Prelude.read: no parse'
error message from GHC.

Great.

Well, the code includes

# grep '\<read\>' *| wc -l
23 (sic!)

calls to the read fn.

Well, how do I compile a Haskell program in such a way, that I
get a useful error message from read? I mean, like the
filename/linenumber of the calling expression for starters.

Really crazy would be the possibility to print out a backtrace,
if some (library) function calls error ...

Best regards
Georg
