This is a hairy topic with lots of interrelated issues, so I've tried to distill it into a wiki page:

http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/SharedLibraries

Please feel free to edit. I've added Reilly's analysis of the Linux and MacOS support (thanks Reilly!).

At the moment, I believe Clemens is implementing the scheme we originally had, except that on MacOS he's setting the install-path of shared libraries in the tree to point to their current locations (gives the effect of -rpath). The plan is to change the paths at install-time, which you can do apparently.

Cheers,
        Simon
