I've downloaded the source bundle ghc-6.5.20060918-src.tar.bz

After ./configure and make, I realized that I have no root permissions
for installation. So called

./configure --prefix=/local/home/maeder/ghc-6.5

followed by "make" and "make install" only to find out that

/usr/local/lib/ghc-6.5.20060918/ghc-6.5.20060918

cannot be found by my /local/home/maeder/ghc-6.5/bin/ghc (in line 5).

What do I have to clean after "configure" with a new prefix? (I hope not
everything. And I hope it works at all with a different prefix)

Thanks, Christian
