Comment:

 @akio I can't reproduce your bug.

 Could you please supply some example code where running `ghci` with
 `-eventlog` ''does'' make a difference.

 Here's what I've tried:
 {{{
 $ cat Test.hs
 main = return ()

 $ ghc-7.6.3 -fforce-recomp -eventlog -c Test.hs

 $ ghc-7.6.3 --interactive Test.o
 GHCi, version 7.6.3: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
 Loading package ghc-prim ... linking ... done.
 Loading package integer-gmp ... linking ... done.
 Loading package base ... linking ... done.
 Loading object (static) Test.o ... done
 final link ... done
 Leaving GHCi.
 }}}

 Seems to work fine.
