Replying to [comment:26 dgoldsmith]:
> It is possible to have an uninstall option with .pkg installation, but
it needs to be done manually; !PackageMaker does not support it. Some
developers install an "uninstall" script/utility as part of their
installation. That seems like the best bet.
Yes, that's what I am planning to provide. Xcode for example, does it
that way, too. It should be quite easy, as my plan is to create
`GHC.framework`. So, uninstalling is a matter of removing the framework
and all links from `/usr/local/bin/` (or `${HOME}/bin`) that point into
that framework.
