I figured it out. It appears to be "Colour" package specific.
The datadir still point to "c:\Program File" even with --user.
I manually edit the dist/setup-config and get Colour installed.
After that, other packages seem working fine.

Does cabal install --user or --prefix work on Windows at all? I tried:
cabal install colour --user cabal install --user colour etc
and all failed because install try to install at c:Program Files which I don't have permission writing.
I have: cabal-install version 0.6.2 using version 1.6.0.3 of the Cabal library The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 6.10.4
Thanks
