Comment:

 We run configure on install because we need to tell cabal to (for example)
 use the ghc-pkg that will be installed, rather than the one is used in-
 place while building the other libraries and the stage2 compiler. I do
 intend to look at reducing the amount of work that this second configure
 run does, though.

 I haven't seen it hang before. I'll see if I can reproduce it.

 Thanks for the report.
