How about a test-suite?
Good point: I've addde one to http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/stable/dist/6.10.1-rc-1/rc.html
P.S. "make binary-dist" creates a big unnecessary ".tar" file together with the final ".tar.bz2" file. Also a (disturbing) link "ghc-6.10.0.20081007 -> ." is created.
The link is deliberate (we tar things up from the build tree, rather than making a ghc-6.10.0.20081007 directory and copying them there).
("make install" no longer reports which path to add)
Ooops, the logic for whether to print the message was the wrong way round. Now fixed. Thanks Ian
