Comment (by igloo):
For platforms that don't support either the GHCi linker or dynlibs
currently, then I think it would be easier and more useful to add dynlib
support. There may be one or two (I'd guess that Arm Linux and PPC Linux
are the only likely candidates) that currently support the GHCi linker and
not dynlibs, but I think that it would be better for people who care about
such platforms to add dynlib support rather than continuing to maintain
the GHCi linker.
