I actually ran into this problem last night. Here's my workaround (note that
it involves downgrading to zlib-0.5.0.0
1) unregister the zlib-0.5.2.0 package (prompt> ghc-pkg unregister zlib-0.5.2.0)
2) rebuild and install cabal-install:
prompt> tar -zxvf
~/.cabal/packages/hackage.haskell.org/cabal-install/0.6.4/cabal-install-0.6.4.tar.gz
prompt> cd cabal-install-0.6.4
prompt> runghc Setup.hs configure --user && runghc Setup.hs build &&
runghc Setup.hs install
Note that this requires that you still have zlib-0.5.0.0 installed. Also your
paths and options for configuring may vary. But, this worked for me.
