I must admit I'm surprised by the reaction to my suggestion. Here /usr is shared between lots of machines and there is no question of my installing GHC in /usr/bin or anything like it. (The few system adminstrators here are all honest, overworked, and sadly incorruptible.) My original problem was that GHC installs the include files in <prefix>/lib/ghc-4.06/includes meaning you have to know the version number as well as the prefix. I suppose this makes sense where <prefix> is in fact /usr, but I actually make <prefix> depend on the version, so having to specify the version twice is redundant. At least my scheme means that (on the rare times when I can build from source . . .) I can store multiple CVS releases.
