Right, the cabal-install 0.8.x release will appear in due course. It shouldn't be too long since I've already been using it for Hackage regression testing of ghc-6.12. > That seems to work, though, but I needed to manually install network, mtl and > parsec > before bootstrap.sh ran. Yes, the bootstrap needs updating to take account of the fact that those packages are no longer shipped with ghc-6.12.
