ghc-6.2.2 broken

[Colin Alston]

Hi

I'd just like to recommend the HIER man page to whoever is responsible 
for this port.

<snip>
/usr/ports/lang/ghc/work/ghc-6.2.2-boot/bin/i386-unknown-freebsd/ghc-6.2.2 
-M -optdep-f -optdep.depend  -osuf o    -H16m -O HaskTags.hs
ELF interpreter /libexec/ld-elf.so.1 not found
</snip>

Now why on earth would I have /libexec on my FreeBSD system?
