With static linking, the short answer is no (we have investigated various
strategies and not found a way to do this reliably). The right way is to
use dynamic linking, where the base package is a shared library, and can
be used by both GHCi itself and the running program. Dynamic linking is
mostly working, we're just fixing issues with installation and
distributions.
