while searching, if ghc can create packages as shared libraries I found
a ticket with a kind of non-accepted status:

But at the google SoC page it looks like an accepted project:
http://code.google.com/soc/haskell/appinfo.html?csaid=D0137F8B637176F1

Well what is the status of the project? Does the student have a
blog/webpage where one can track the progress of the project?

Btw, the problem I want to solve with shared libraries is the case,
where I want to program 2 frontends (==2 executables), which share a lot
of Haskell-Code. I am afraid, if both frontends are linked statically,
the result will look a bit 'bloated' ...

Yes, Clemens Fruhwirth is working on shared libraries for GHC in the summer of code. Some of the work has already been done, he'll be fixing up the bits that don't work and polishing it all for inclusion in a future release (probably not 6.8, but we'll see).

There should be a wiki page with progress and work plan up soon, we'll post details when that's ready.

Cheers,
        Simon
