Segfault in GHC API code using Shelly

A segfault occurs when using the GHC API with Shelly. I do not know why.

Here is a code snippet that triggers it:

import GHC
import GHC.Paths ( libdir )
import DynFlags
 
main = runGhc (Just libdir) $ do
  dflags <- getSessionDynFlags
  setSessionDynFlags $ dflags { hscTarget = HscInterpreted,
          ghcLink = LinkInMemory }
  imports <- mapM parseImportDecl ["import Shelly", "import Prelude"]
  setContext $ map IIDecl imports
  runStmt "shelly undefined" RunToCompletion

Note that on Mac OS X, this has no output whatsoever. The segfault occurs on Ubuntu 14.04, with uname -a outputting the following:

Linux yed 3.13.0-34-generic #60-Ubuntu SMP Wed Aug 13 15:45:27 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I cannot find any way to get this to work and have no idea what's up with this or why shelly triggers it.
