Comment:

 I was about to commit a patch that fixes the .def issue. We have to strip
 -Wl--export-all-symbols (or similar) from the gcc invocation (otherwise
 .def makes only limited sense). My intention was to update the ghc user
 manual along with it, but it doesn't fit into the "Windows stuff" section
 anymore, because ghc -shared is cross-platform. Where would this stuff go?
 Create a new chapter?

 Reopening ticket (feel free to bug me, if this still shows up unresolved
 in a month)
