cairo demo in ghci throws "unknown symbol" error

[guest]

I successully installed gtk2hs-0.12.0, but when trying to run the demo app (cairo package) Drawing.hs, I get

Prelude> :load Drawing.hs
[1 of 1] Compiling Main             ( Drawing.hs, interpreted )

Compiling with ghc --make Drawing.hs -o main runs OK

But when I try to build i. e. the Chart package it fails with the above error.

This also happens when I combine Template Haskell and Gtk. Surprisingly, I only see this happen in windows, the same code works ok in Ubuntu, using ghc-6.12. So that you can test it, I'm using TH to generate code like the one that follows:

closeBtn :: Builder -> IO Button
closeBtn = onBuilder castToButton "closeBtn"

providing only "closeBtn" and "Button".

I checked that the function did exist in the libraries and includes I was specifying with extra-include-dirs and extra-lib-dirs, and that pkg-config was providing the right paths for cairo.

PS. I'm singing the message as I couldn't find a way to add myself to the CC field using the guest user.
