Comment (by RyanGlScott):

 Urgh. Reasons like this is why I find testing GHC HEAD with `stack` to be
 infuriating.

 If you really must use `stack`, my guess is that adding dependencies of
 the `ghc` library (e.g., `bytestring`) to `extra-deps` is confusing it and
 causing it to link against two different copies of the same library,
 causing linker shenanigans. What happens if you remove everything except
 `dump-core`, `deepseq`, and `hashable`?

 When I get a chance, I'll try installing `dump-core` myself on my Windows
 machine with `cabal-install` (if someone else doesn't do so before me).
