I couldn't find them, and they're not listed at <http://www.haskell.org/cabal/download.html> (except OS X), or at <http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Cabal-Install>, or at <http://hackage.haskell.org/package/cabal-install>.

I think there's now hosted official cabal install binaries online. I'm Afk but they should be a short google away. Should be linked more prominently though

    So I want to install GHC + cabal on a new system, building cabal
    packages with profiling and documentation. Here's what I have to do:

    1. Download, unpack and install GHC.

    2. Download and unpack cabal-install, and run bootstrap.sh. As
    part of the bootstrap, it will download and build a bunch of packages.

    3. Delete the downloaded packages ("rm -rf ~/.ghc/*") because they
    were built without profiling or documentation.

    4. Call "cabal update" to get a default .cabal/config file.

    5. Edit .cabal/config to switch on library-profiling,
    executable-profiling, and documentation.

    6. Build my stuff.

    This would be much simplified if binary versions of cabal-install
    were available. (It would be even simpler if they were just
    included in the GHC builds -- I could eliminate 2 & 3.)
