I just tested this and cannot reproduce it:
$ cabal install vector
... building ...
$ ls /Users/a/.cabal/lib/x86_64-osx-ghc-7.8.0.20140226/vector-0.10.9.1
Data libHSvector-0.10.9.1-ghc7.8.0.20140226.dylib include libHSvector-0.10.9.1.a
$ ls /Users/a/.cabal/lib/x86_64-osx-ghc-7.8.0.20140226/primitive-0.5.2.1/
Control include libHSprimitive-0.5.2.1.a Data
libHSprimitive-0.5.2.1-ghc7.8.0.20140226.dylib
$ uname -a

There is certainly a dylib available for both of these libraries.
You're going to need to be very explicit in what you did to install
GHC, and how. (Did you use the binary distribution I pulled from the
server?)* Unfortunately I'm about to run out the door, and don't have
time for the next few hours closely investigate.
* On another note, I will say that there is not an 'RC2' until I
announce that it is so, to be completely honest. Right this second,
some last minute fixes went into HEAD which will be merged for the
actual RC2. Otherwise I would have released it today. But thank you
for testing anyway!
