GHCBIN and TOPDIROPT in the shell script wrappers for ghc and ghci contain the 
install-time prefix (not the correct build-time one), I am not sure if there 
are other places. I think that there are basically 2 options:

   * Generate the shell wrappers at "make" time, not "make install" time.

   * Even better: Substitute the paths at "rpm -i" time, enabling relocatable 
RPMs.
