Placement of error marker when module not found

[Paul Benedict]

Thanks Jon. I bet the marker placement code is shared code because the same
problem is exhibited with other keywords like "exports". Just wanted to
point that out in case a unit test is written. You'd want to see it
corrected despite the keyword.

Cheers,
Paul
