In the mean time you can just:

Where do I get the "cabal" command? I'm installing GHC on a new machine and I was hoping it would be included. I can't obtain it via "cabal install cabal-install" because I don't have the cabal command and I don't know how to tie the knot in this case.
Download the cabal-install .tar.gz from Hackage, unpack it. There's a script bootstrap.sh in the directory, run that, it wgets zlib and HTTP and installs them, after that, it installs cabal-install and you're ready to go. If you're on windows, there's a cabal binary installer somewhere (should be findable from the cabal homepage, I believe).
