Thanks for the rc release. :) It would be nice if cabal allowed more choice or configuration of install directories IMHO: in particular libdir comes to mind. Also it would be nice if the default was multilib aware (eg for Fedora on x86_64 libdir is "/usr/lib64"). Personally I would like to see ghc libraries at least installed under ghc's libdir since their ABI depends on the version of ghc they are built with, ie typically under $libdir/ghc-$ghc_version/ rather than $libdir.
