Critical dependency: the request of a dependency is an expression

[MiloCasagrande]

After upgrading from 1.3.3 to 1.5.0, using marko-loader with webpack, I get the following error:

Critical dependency: the request of a dependency is an expression

I can reproduce the same issue using the marko-webpack repository after upgrading all dependencies in there.

This is the output taken from the marko-webpack repository when running npm start:

WARNING in ./src/components/app-tabs/index.marko 1:0-18
Critical dependency: the request of a dependency is an expression
 @ ./src/components/app/index.marko
 @ ./src/pages/home/client.js

When loading the app from a brwoser, the app itself is "broken": no CSS and no interactivity. This is the error I get from the browser console:

Uncaught Error: Cannot find module 'undefined'

Dependencies:

• marko 4.15.2
• marko-loader 1.5.0
• webpack 4.25.9
• webpack-cli 3.2.3

We're seeing this problem as well. We narrowed it down to the 1.4.0 release.
