#5435: GHCi linker should run constructors for linked libraries

Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: None/Unknown
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
As far as I can tell from my experimentation, any library that contains a
function with __attribute__((constructor)) on it won't have its
constructor(s) run when loaded, or its destructors run when unloaded. This
violates assumptions that some libraries make.
