"cannot find normal object file" error during compilation
When I try to compile tests provided in the singletons package I get the following error:

Data/Singletons/Core.hs:1:1:
cannot find normal object file ‛dist/build/compile/compile-tmp/Data/Singletons/Util.dyn_o’
while linking an interpreted expression
This happens on HEAD but not on 7.6.3. Steps to reproduce:
- Download and extract singletons source code
- In the cabal file uncomment test-suite section (which is commented out because it doesn't work)
cabal configure --enable-tests && cabal build
Reproducing this requires installing packages required by singletons. I'm setting milestone to 7.8 as this is something that looks like a blocker in a stable release.
