The likely problem is that you do not have the profiling version of hsql installed. The reason for the error message is that the .hi files for the normal and profiling versions are distinct, and in this case the .hi files for the profiling version are missing. Newer versions of GHC give a slightly more helpful error message in this case. If you built from source using Cabal then you need to rebuild and pass -p (or --enable-library-profiling) during the configure step. If you're using a distro package then you probably just need the prof variant as well.
