Comment (by Phyx-):

 I don't really know how `stack` works, and I am sort of confused why
 `--interactive` is involved here. Never the less, I don't think anything
 broke here, interactive was just never fixed. Previously when it built
 `cabal run` was used as a test. This wouldn't use the runtime linker and
 should still be working.

 I think the duplicate symbols error is coming from the fact that the Rts
 re-exports some symbols from `mingw` but not all. it includes
 `SymI_HasProto(coshf)` under the comment:

 {{{
 /* These are statically linked from the mingw libraries into the ghc
    executable, so we have to employ this hack. */
 }}}

 Does `run` still produce a working binary?
