Applying a strategy in an overlay definition causes a fatal error, but the error message is not pointing at the offending definition:

module foo

overlays
bar = 1

strategies
main = fail

compiling foo.str yields:

[ strc | info ] Compiling ‘./foo.str’
[ strc | error ] Compilation failed (0.26 secs)

It would be nice to indicate that the error stems from the strategy application in the bar overlay.
