I believe that it the simplest way for programmer. But is that the best way for users? i want to make building/installation as simple as possible using Cabal infrastructure. is it possible that some box will have Cabal, but not hsc2hs installed?
I would *guess* that hsc2hs is always distributed with ghc. I know it is on Linux and BSD -- I am not sure about Windows. If you build ghc from source, I believe it is automatically built and installed. If you want to support hugs as well, then they would need hschs-hugs installed. Debian includes that with hugs by default -- not sure about anyone else. j. ps. Also, if it matters, cpphs is typically *not* available by default (but cpp probably is).
