The problem is that you have some existing object files that are built
in the asm_fast.gc grade.  If you force everything to be rebuilt, by
doing:

    $ mmc --grade asm_fast.gc.decldebug.stseg --rebuild a07

it should go away.

(The explanation for the above is that Mercury has a mechanism that
prevents object files from different grades being linked together.
That mechanism a reference to grade-specific symbol -- the one
beginning MR_grade_v19_.)
