ghc-ieee754:static doesn't seem to exist, but passing -dynamic does
indeed work. The workaround also translates to Agda, with
$ agda --ghc-flag=-dynamic --compile hello-world.agda
I'd really rather this wasn't necessary, though. I can already imagine
having to figure out how to pass this flag to agda through build systems
and editor plugins.
On a related note, shouldn't it be possible to use agda without
specifying ghc (and transitively, gcc) in your profile?
