Comment:

 The results for i386 aren't bad either, compile times seem OK as well:

 {{{
         -1 s.d.                -----           -2.0%
         +1 s.d.                -----           +1.7%
         Average                -----           -0.2%
 }}}

 So I think this ticket can be considered closed - the penalties seem very
 small overall on GHC, which is the primary case for dynamic linking (and
 probably the largest). Simon, do re-open if you disagree.
