ghci linker does not know about rts_getWord64

I stumbled into this with this code:

foreign export ccall "gtk2hs_store_get_column_type_impl"
  customTreeModelGetColumnType_static :: StablePtr
    (CustomTreeModelImplementation row) -> CInt -> IO GType

GType turns out to be a CULong and I'm on a 64bit arch.

So the _stub.c file end up using rts_getWord64

However when we try and load ghci -package gtk we get a linker error from the ghci linker because it doesn't know rts_getWord64.

Indeed, inspecting rts/Linker.c we have rts_getWord and rts_getWord32 but not rts_getWord64.
