Ccing Edward, who may have some insight here.

Actually that raises a question: is it possible to set a top level ghci option file pragma for having a module to fobject code ? That would be nice for exactly this reason. Fobject code doesn't seem to work as of 7.10, though it seems to be listed as dynamic as of 8.0 rc2, does that mean it'll work for those of using ghc 8.0 ??
It does not work as far as I know. I don't believe the problem was ever that -fobject-code wasn't a dynamic flag; I suspect the reason is that by the time we see the pragma we've already committed to compiling the module. That being said, I'm not as familiar with this part of the compiler as I'd like to be. Cheers, - Ben
