Issue 1: In 3.14 there was a poor error when starting a repl in a project context without any targets. In 3.16, this error regressed, so cabal just exited cleanly. Issue 2: The repl was broken when started from a global context. Issue 1 is fixed by checking to see if there are any user targets, and issuing a proper error if there are none. Issue 2 is fixed by specifying the correct fake target which is constructed when starting the repl in the global context. Both are reported in #11107 and fixed in this patch.
