This is a bug in the Solaris port of 6.0.1, which sadly was not 
noticed before the release.  It has been fixed since 
(System.Sendfile is no more).

You can work around it by making a tiny C file containing a 
stub for sendfile(), and linking it in:

$ cat >sendfile.c
sendfile() {}
^D
$ gcc -c sendfile.c
$ ghci sendfile.o
...
Prelude> :set -package unix

(it doesn't work to specify -package unix on the command 
line, because GHCi tries to link it before any of the other 
libraries or objects).
