Comment(by batterseapower):

 Thanks for the reply Ian. The problem is that although ghci succeeds at
 that stage, actually trying to *use* anything from the library fails. Try
 doing what I did in my original report:

 {{{
 :m Text.Highlighting.Kate.Syntax
 languages
 }}}

 I tried it again with highlighting-kate 0.2.9 with the same result:

 {{{
 During interactive linking, GHCi couldn't find the following symbol:
 highlightingzmkatezm0zi2zi9_TextziHighlightingziKateziSyntax_languages_closure
 This may be due to you not asking GHCi to load extra object files,
 archives or DLLs needed by your current session.  Restart GHCi, specifying
 the missing library using the -L/path/to/object/dir and -lmissinglibname
 flags, or simply by naming the relevant files on the GHCi command line.
 Alternatively, this link failure might indicate a bug in GHCi.
 If you suspect the latter, please send a bug report to:
   [email protected]
 }}}
