GHCi, version 7.10.2: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
Prelude> import System.Directory
Prelude> readFile "foo"
*** Exception: foo: openFile: does not exist (No such file or directory)
Prelude System.Directory> getModificationTime "foo"
*** Exception: getFileAttributesExStandard: does not exist (The system cannot find the file specified.)

Error message should mention the file you are trying to use.

This was fixed in 1.2.3.0, though I forgot to mention it in the changelogs.

GHC 7.10.2 comes with 1.2.2.0 IIRC.
