Comment (by bgamari):

 Regarding comment:5: I suspect not given that this is a dynamic GHC; in
 fact, I believe GHC shouldn't actually load **any** objects for `base`
 since it is one of the packages in `Linker.partOfGHCi`. I have confirmed
 that the symbol is present in the `libHSbase` shared object.

 Nevertheless, it might be good to circle back and look into the archive
 oddness seen in comment:2 after nailing this bug.
