+          <para>On Darwin/MacOS X, dynamic libraries are stamped at build time with an
+              "install name", which is the ultimate install path of the library file.
+              Any libraries or executables that subsequently link against it will pick
+              up that path as their runtime search location for it. By default, ghc sets
+              the install name to the location where the library is built. This option
+              allows you to override it with the specified file path. (It passes
+              <literal>-install_name</literal> to Apple's linker.) Ignored on other
+              platforms.</para>
