setting libdir doesn't work with Unix binary dist

The 9 Sept binary dist on x86_64 installed things in the wrong place when I configured it with

./configure --prefix=$HOME/fp --bindir=$HOME/fp/bin/x86_64-unknown-linux --libdir=$HOME/fp/lib/x86_64-unknown-linux

the packages appear to have gone into $HOME/fp/lib/ghc-6.8.20070911, and the installed GHC can't find them. Everything else seems to be in the right place, though.
