Okay that sounds reasonable. I was looking for an -odir equivalent for hi files anyway. (It was not that hard :-)). The problem with hierarchical libs remains.
Example:
./out
./out/Foo
./src
./src/Foo
./src/Foo/Bar.hs
>   module Foo.Bar where
>   import Foo.Bla
./src/Foo/Bla.hs
>   module Foo.Bla

> ghc -M -odir out/Foo/ -hidir out/Foo/ src/Foo/Bar.hs -isrc
# DO NOT DELETE: Beginning of Haskell dependencies
out/Foo//Foo/Bla.o : src/Foo/Bla.hs
out/Foo//Foo/Bar.o : src/Foo/Bar.hs
out/Foo//Foo/Bar.o : out/Foo//Foo/Bla.hi
# DO NOT DELETE: End of Haskell dependencies

@Daan: why don't you use --make anyway? It would make obsolete so many problems IMO.

Cheers,
  Georg
