Comment:
It's true, GHCi doesn't call constructors when it loads a `.o` or a `.a`
file. However, shared libraries are loaded by the system linker and
constructors will be run as normal. So one workaround is to put your C++
code into a shared library (but then you can't just use `c-sources` in
Cabal of course).
How difficult it would be to implement this I don't know, maybe it
wouldn't be too hard. We should at least look into it.
