Comment (by tim-m89):

 When passing this specific linker option, it needs to come after the hard
 coded 1 to to take precedence apparently, but from my limited tests that
 only seems to be the case for simple GHC invocations. Specifying that
 option in either the cabal file or passed to stack as an option to pass to
 GHC via 'stack build' doesn't work, though passing it to GHC directly
 works fine (including when that same GHC invocation was via 'stack exec').
