Please think seriously about mangling the names of Haskell libraries to include version information and dropping them in $PREFIX/lib with every other language's libraries. Haskell is not special, and users expect libraries to be in /usr/lib. No wrapper needed, no RPATH needed, as far as I can see no fanciness at all.
