Does this actually work for you? It builds for me, but when readBinIface' is called, it fails because the 'undefined' is apparently actually evaluated in GHC 7.4.1.
Hmm, frankly this fix was to get another package dependent on plugins to compile (https://github.com/colah/ImplicitCAD). The program runs without evaluating undefined, but I suspect this is just because I haven't hit the relevant codepath. After a fairly brief look at the relevant documentation, I must say I don't see any easy solution to this. The undefined in question is a DynFlags. It seems that DynFlags.defaultDynFlags can give us a DynFlags, but unfortunately, it needs a Settings value (at least in 7.4), which has no obvious. It seems the correct way to do this is with parseDynamicFlags but, alas, this too requires a DynFlags. Cheers, - Ben
