I wouldn't say it was a bug - the function really doesn't exist, and the 
library really does refer to it (AIUI).  The reason that ghc behaves 
differently from ghci is that you don't have to link all the symbols 
from a .a library.  The same problem will occur in ghc if the package is 
compiled to a shared library or DLL.

Cheers,
