ghci with ffi to inline assembly results in "the 'impossible'"

I'm attempting to run some assembly in Haskell; in order to do that I wrote a FFI to some inline C asm. Attempting to load it in ghci results in:

$ g++ -c ffi.cpp -fPIC

$ ghci ffi.o Main.hs

GHCi, version 7.8.4: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help
Loading package ghc-prim ... linking ... done.
Loading package integer-gmp ... linking ... done.
Loading package base ... linking ... done.
Loading object (static) ffi.o ... ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)

  (GHC version 7.8.4 for x86_64-unknown-linux):

         Loading temp shared object failed: /tmp/ghc8684_0/ghc8684_1.so: undefined symbol: _ZNSt8ios_base4InitD1Ev

Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
