It is not just 7.8 (I just tried 7.6), and it is not just GHC. It is about "dynamic", and it is in Haskell 98 with the FFI Addendum or Haskell 2010. "The type of a dynamic stub has to be of the form (FunPtr ft) -> ft, where ft may be any foreign type." In retrospect, I think you completely mistook the meaning of "dynamic".
