thanks stefan, I did remember that discussion
(actually also an answer to a question I asked.)
I got from that that previous help that
I had to edit the cabal file.
The problem here, as you say, is that
I had not re-run runghc Setup.hs configure.
thanks,
thomas.

Did you re-run configure after changing the cabal file?
Also, what ghc-pkg says has absolutely nothing to do with this; the
options Cabal passes completely override the ghc-pkg exposure flags.I
can hardly fault you for not knowing the answer to a Cabal FAQ, since
Cabal doesn't actually have a FAQ list yet.
You are running into the same problem as
http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/haskell-cafe/2007-August/030276.html,
and most of my explanation there applies here.
