Comment:

 Ok, I have been able to fix the problem. It was caused by Nix
 automatically
 stripping {{{.o}}} files (with flag {{{-S}}}) on installation. Apparently,
 calling
 {{{strip -S}}} on {{{HSffi.o}}} results in a file that can no longer be
 loaded by
 GHCi. I find that curious, but it's easy enough to fix by not calling
 {{{strip}}}
 on that file.

 I can now report that ghc-6.12.1rc1 works for me.
