Thanks Daniel!
The version of cabal-install on this page seems to be out of date:
http://www.haskell.org/cabal/download.html
Luckily the other releases are listed at http://www.haskell.org/cabal/release.
This seems to have solved my issue.

Hi all.
I'm having some issues setting up cabal on EC2.
I've installed ghc 7.0.2, however, the bootstrap.sh script for
cabal-install is complaining about missing dependencies:
Linking Setup ... Configuring Cabal-1.8.0.2...
That looks wrong. ghc-7 comes with Cabal-1.10, so you should better build cabal-install with that, that would be cabal-install-0.10. Which cabal-install package have you?
Setup: At least the following dependencies are missing: base >=4 && <3 && >=1 && <5, filepath >=1 && <1.2
That's a weird constraint. Impossible to fulfill, >= 4 && < 3.
Setup: At least the following dependencies are missing: base >=4 && <3 && >=1 && <5, filepath >=1 && <1.2
ghc-pkg tells me that I have base and filepath installed:
/usr/local/lib/ghc-7.0.2/package.conf.d
base-4.3.1.0
/usr/local/lib/ghc-7.0.2/package.conf.d
filepath-1.2.0.0
Could there be an environment variable I need to set somewhere?
Try downloading and unpacking cabal-install-0.10.* and run the bootstrap script from that. If that doesn't work, report again.
