 {{{
 After installing ghc for linux using rpm with
 --prefix=/usr/local,
 the ghc scriipt incorrectly thinks the libraries etc
 are in /usr:

 #!/bin/sh
 GHCBIN="/usr/lib/ghc-6.2.2/ghc-6.2.2";
 TOPDIROPT="-B/usr/lib/ghc-6.2.2";
 # Mini-driver for GHC
 exec $GHCBIN $TOPDIROPT ${1+"$@"}

 After editing, at least the compiler actually starts up :)
