This one is due to having an out of date cabal. Upgrade to darcs cabal, then rebuild cabal-install, and things should go fine.

Well, Cabal cannot automatically compile itself with itself.
Ok, I didn't know that. I thought it would work since I have the latest release of Cabal installed (1.2.2.0).
Use:
$ make
That did it. Many thanks. No more runhaskell Setup.[l]hs for me ;-) Cheers Ben
