Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):

 The FreeBSD GHC port includes a patch to fix this problem.  Basically, it
 adds "-L/usr/local/lib" to the ld-options config in
 ghc/rts/package.conf.in.

 See the patch here:
 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/lang/ghc/files/

 And the post-patch target of the port's Makefile.

 I made this change manually, and my build of ghc-6.6 appears to be working
 properly in this regard.

 I hope this is helpful.

 Thanks!
