I've installed GHC 6.10.1, which comes with Cabal. However, it doesn't seem to come in executable form ?
Cabal is a compiler-specific library, so it comes with the compiler. cabal-install is a compiler-agnostic package on Hackage which installs an executable that uses compiler-specific libraries to adapt to the installed compiler(s). So you want to download and install cabal-install.
Right, and on Windows it is enough to download the executable http://www.haskell.org/cabal/release/cabal-install-0.6.2/cabal.exe from http://www.haskell.org/cabal/download.html and put into a directory, where it will be found, i.e. where ghc-pkg and ghc have been installed. Cheers Christian
