Thanks.  I tried this, but it appears cabal-install ignores the Setup.hs file.  The only way I could get it to take is if I run 'runhaskell Setup.hs configure' directly.  I always assumed cabal-install runs Setup.hs under the hood, but apparently not.  Why is this?

I believe you must set Build-type: Custom in your cabal file to use user hooks in Setup.hs. I don't fully understand the implications of using Custom, though. --Rogan
