#1237: misleading error message from cabal when versions differ

------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
Using cabal, I do './Setup.hs configure', './Setup.hs build', and 'sudo
./Setup.hs install'. Unfortunately, root's $PATH pointed to a different
GHC (6.7 at some point, and not 6.4.2 which I was using), which resulted
in the error message:
Setup.hs: error reading ./.setup-config; run "setup configure" command?
Of course, there was nothing wrong with .setup-config, so I spent some
time investigating permissions, before int-e suggested that the search
path was at fault.
