Ah, OK... Adding -dynamic makes this work, but with -dynamic-too, ghci
still loads the interpreted version. I didn't follow the linking story
in detail, so this is all a bit confusing. I think that at least
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/7.8.3/html/users_guide/ghci-compiled.html
needs some update, because as it is, it doesn't reflect reality.
