ghci failed to load

Working through Haskell in 5 steps I attempted to execute ghci after installing ghc-6.6-i386-apple-darwin.tar.bz2. The output was:

Douglas $ ghci
/usr/local/bin/ghci: line 12: /usr/local/lib/ghc-6.6: is a directory
/usr/local/bin/ghci: line 12: exec: /usr/local/lib/ghc-6.6: cannot execute: Unknown error: 0

Editing /usr/local/bin/ghci-6.6 on line 9:

- GHCBIN="$libexecdir";
+ GHCBIN="$libexecdir/ghc-6.6";

seems to fix the problem.
