Where do I get the "cabal" command? I'm installing GHC on a new machine

install cabal-install" because I don't have the cabal command and I 
don't know how to tie the knot in this case.

Download the cabal-install .tar.gz from Hackage, unpack it.
There's a script bootstrap.sh in the directory, run that, it wgets zlib and 
HTTP and 
installs them, after that, it installs cabal-install and you're ready to go.
If you're on windows, there's a cabal binary installer somewhere (should be 
findable from the cabal homepage, I believe).

There are binaries of the 'cabal' command on many distros too.

And to make many, many peoples life easier the binaries could have
been included in ghc 6.10.2 (but I know there are some philosophical
reasons against it).
