 I'm not very familiar with dynamic linking on ARM but isn't this wrong?
 `base_GHCziIOziHandleziFD_stdout_closure` needs to point to the same
 address in the executable and in the shared library since it is a closure
 that will get overwritten with a new Handle object the first time it is
 entered.

 bgamari, you know about these ARM relocation types right?
