No symlinks after install.

After having run the installer represented by file: Haskell Platform 7.10.2-a 64bit-signed.pkg (which I found here: https://www.haskell.org/platform) ("openssl md5 Has*" yields 436e5370acfefbfe4cf7e3bc0a2fc56b) The Installer says "The installation was successful". I am looking at the page: file:///Library/Haskell/doc/start.html That page says:

Executables are symlinked in /usr/bin and should be available in any shell.

I can find no new symlinks there. Perhaps I am merely don't know what to look for. The documentation does not tell me what to expect that I can see.

The shell command "ls -ltr /usr/bin" shows nothing newer than July; this is late August. Command "ls /usr/bin/gh* /usr/bin/has*" yields only "hash". "ls /Library/Frameworks/GHC.framework" and "/Library/Haskell" are populated.

I am running OS X 10.11 (beta).
