Bug in 6.0.1

When I load HToolkit 1.2 into GHC 6.0.1 I get the following:

--8<----

mettw > ghci -package gio  
   ___         ___ _
  / _ \ /\  /\/ __(_)
 / /_\// /_/ / /  | |      GHC Interactive, version 6.0.1, for Haskell 98.
/ /_\\/ __  / /___| |      http://www.haskell.org/ghc/
\____/\/ /_/\____/|_|      Type :? for help.

Loading package port ... linking ... /usr/lib/ghc-6.0.1/HSport.o: unknown 
symbol `__stginit_GHCziWord_'
ghc-6.0.1: panic! (the `impossible' happened, GHC version 6.0.1):
        can't load package `port'

Please report it as a compiler bug to glasgow-haskell-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxx,
or http://sourceforge.net/projects/ghc/.

But by specifying the text package it loads OK

--8<----

mettw > ghci -package gio -package text

Also, on my Debian Testing system /usr/lib/libpthreads.so is
an ld script, but ghci tries to load it as a library.  It aborts
complaining that /usr/lib/libpthreads.so has an invalid ELF header.
To get around the problem I've had to replace the ld script with
a symlink to /lib/libpthread.so.0, which will probably cause
problems in the future since there are some functions that are 
only in /usr/lib/libpthread_nonshared.a (Which ld can only reach with
the script).
