Hi Café. I'm building GHC from package ghc-7.4.1-src.tar.bz2 as the binary download was throwing segfaults for me (and apparently a few others). This has worked well and my issues with GHC and GHCi are now resolved. However I have needed to build cabal-install. This can't be done using cabal-install because it isn't installed :)
I've found that I had to make several modifications to the bootstrap.sh and cabal-install.cabal files in order to get this to work. I am wondering how the maintainers of the Haskell-platform, etc are dealing with these issues. There seems to be a cabal-install-7.4.1 package on Hackage to address these issues, but I couldn't get it to work for me. Is this actually being used by the community? I realize that I am making trouble for myself by not just using the Haskell-Platform, but there are some packages I want to use that depend on recent versions of base.
