GHC runtime linker: fatal error: I found a duplicate definition for symbol

I found GHC panic when using both inline-c and local Win32 package.

I don't know whether it's related to #6107 (closed).

    This could be caused by:
       * Loading two different object files which export the same symbol
       * Specifying the same object file twice on the GHCi command line
       * An incorrect `package.conf' entry, causing some object to be
         loaded twice.
