Comment:

 The patches are generally fine.  I wonder whether `-install-name` is the
 best name for the flag: it's a bit generic.  Perhaps `-dylib-install-
 name`?

 The `sed` stuff is indeed unsightly, but I don't see any easy way to fix
 it, because the knowledge about where a library is finally installed lives
 in Cabal at the moment.

 I presume this patch subsumes the patch "rejig dylib names on Mac only"
 sent to the `cvs-ghc` list by `mwot...@gmail.com`?
