Comment (by Simon Marlow <marlowsd@…>):

 In [changeset:1908195261ccf16b0f3d2e77ebd5cd40c9e29cbc/ghc]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="ghc"
 revision="1908195261ccf16b0f3d2e77ebd5cd40c9e29cbc"
 Fix linker_unload now that we are running constructors in the linker
 (#8291)

 See also #5435.

 Now we have to remember the the StablePtrs that get created by the
 module initializer so that we can free them again in unloadObj().
