Comment (by int-e):

 I believe that this also affects users of 'cabal repl', because cabal-
 install uses -dynamic-too for compiling. So after 'cabal build', 'cabal
 repl' will still recompile all modules of a package as bytecode. With
 ghc-7.6.3 (and vanilla objects), 'cabal repl' would load the compiled
 object files.
