Comment(by simonmar):
This is indeed a significant ugliness. I think fixing it would be fairly
mechanical, just package up the linker's state as an object that gets
passed in to every call, and then in GHC the `PersistentLinkerState`
becomes the holder for the RTS linker state and is carried around in the
`HscEnv` rather than being a global variable.
