In addition to that, you can only have one Haskell Platform install and you need admin to install it. With this, you don't need admin and can have as many "installs" as you want (although it won't save you from .ghc or .cabal hell).
I wrote an article explaining how I install multiple versions and avoid ~/.cabal hell (on Debian Wheezy): http://www.extellisys.com/articles/haskell-on-debian-wheezy TLDR: Do not install *anything* into ~/.cabal; essentially just use it to store the package list and archives, installing the most recent version of cabal-install into --global and everything else into sandboxes.
