Comment (by igloo):

 The only file that looks like it will be troublesome is `libraries
 /haskell-src/Language/Haskell/Parser.hs`. Future source tarballs (>=
 20070920) should include it.

 Running `make clean` will still delete the file, though. Ideally Cabal
 should deal with this properly, but for now I think the best thing we can
 do (not yet done) is to hack Setup.hs to not delete it if we didn't find
 happy when configuring.

 Incidentally, you shouldn't need to do so, but if you do want to build
 happy from source then you should use Cabal to do so, not the old
 Makefiles.
