#3124: warning -F: directory name (/Users/me/Library/Frameworks) does not exist

Version: 6.8.2 | Severity: normal

Os: MacOS X | Architecture: x86
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
mac osx 10.4.11(intel),
ghc 6.8.2 installed from ghc-6.8.2-i386-apple-darwin.tar.bz2
When I try to compile programs, I get this warning:
$ ghc -o simple Main.hs PutJSON.hs SimpleJSON.hs
compilation IS NOT required
/usr/libexec/gcc/i686-apple-darwin8/4.0.1/ld: warning -F: directory name
(/Users/autie/Library/Frameworks) does not exist
This is how I installed ghc:
1) I downloaded GMP.framework and GNUreadline.framework, which my mac
automatically unzipped and placed on my desktop. I then dragged the
resulting two folders into /Library/Frameworks as per the instructions at:
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_682.html#macosxintel
2) I downloaded ghc-6.8.2-i386-apple-darwin.tar.bz2
3) I unzipped an untared into /Users/me/my_tar_extractions
4) I cd'ed into the newly created ghc-6.8.2 folder.
5) I read the INSTALL document in the ghc-6.8.2 folder.
6) I ran the command:
$ ./configure
7) Then I ran the command:
$ sudo make install
8) At the end of the install output, I got a message that said:
-------------
Installation of ghc-6.8.2 was successful.
To use, add /usr/local/bin to your PATH.
Warning: this binary distribution does NOT contain documentation!
--------------
9) I appended /usr/local/bin onto the PATH in ~/.bash_profile.
This is what INSTALL from step 5 says:
This is the INSTALL instructions for a binary distribution of GHC. For
more details on what on earth this package is up to, please consult
the README and ANNOUNCE.
This distribution can be installed in a location of your choosing.
To set the ball rolling, run the configure script (as usual, run the
script with --help to see what options it supports). eg. to set up
the package for installing in directory <my-dir>, use
./configure --prefix=<my-dir>
The default installation directory is /usr/local.
The configure script will figure out what platform you're running on,
and a couple of other interesting pieces of trivia, which it will then
fill in the Makefile.in template to give you a real Makefile. If
you're of a paranoid persuasion, you might want to take a look at this
Makefile to see if the information is correct.
Now run:
make install
(`make show-install-setup' prints the details of where the different
pieces of the bundle are heading when -- possibly helpful).
For more information, full GHC documentation is available from the
main GHC site:
http://www.haskell.org/ghc
Bug reports/suggestions for improvement to the installation
procedure/setup (as well as other GHC related troubles you're
experiencing, of course), gratefully received. Bug reporting
instructions are here:
