My development environment is a Screen with Bash, Vim and GHCi
  running.

  If I can just load the files in GHCi or compile them with GHC
  without specifying many options or extensions, then I just do
  it that way. As soon as I feel a need to write a Makefile or a
  little build script, I write a Cabal file instead and switch
  to using `cabal-install'.

  When I say "many" options or extensions, I nearly mean "any".
  Most projects of mine get a Cabal file at the point where I
  feel the need for the first `LANGUAGE' pragma. (I usually omit
  `LANGUAGE' pragmas, delegating to Cabal for that. I'm not sure
  whether this is good or bad practice.)
