Comment (by darchon):

 The `LC_RPATH` value tells me that you're using the GHC binary from
 `/inplace/`. But how, and why, are you using the GHC binary from
 `/inplace/`, while using the libraries from `/bindisttest/install   dir/`?
 If you're using the libraries from `/bindisttest/install   dir/`, then why
 wouldn't you be using the GHC binary from `/bindisttest/install   dir/`?

 I feel that this ticket should stay closed, as the original problem
 (references to the build directory) is fixed; //normal// users of GHC are
 no longer affected. However, I agree that the current design could be
 improved for //advanced// users and GHC developers. So perhaps you can
 file a feature request that specifically states your needs/use-case that
 is not met by the current design?
