cabal-install installs to your user package database; you want this, it
means you don't have to wipe out the entire installation if you get
conflicting libraries installed. If you are not finding libraries because
you're installing stuff the old "runhaskell Setup.hs configure" etc. way,
just run "cabal install" (with no package name) instead of the Setup.hs
stuff.
Also note that, while ~/.cabal/bin is used on linux, it's
~/Library/Haskell/bin on OS X.
