Yet another possibility might be to do new-exec instead of new-run to run hadrian after it is built by cabal. As hvr's example commands show alex and happy are available in PATH then.
I actually thougth that `new-run` is the same as `new-exec` in this respect, so I expected that both Alex and Happy will be visible to Hadrian's `loopkupInPath`. Same for running Hadrian with Stack. Could you check if it works when using the current `build.cabal.sh`? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/16120#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
