 If the sought-for interface is in the current package (as determined
 by -package-name flag) then it jolly well should already be in the HPT
-because we process home-package modules in dependency order.  (Except

+because we process home-package modules in dependency order. So we shouldn't even call `findAndReadIface`.

+Two exceptions:
+- one-shot mode; see notes with hsc_HPT decl in GHC.Driver.Env)
+- GHC.Internal.Prim module which can be accessed at any time because it's a
+  virtual module at the top of the hierarchy
 
 It is possible (though hard) to get this error through user behaviour.
