Try

cabal install --with-c2hs="C:\path\to\c2hs.exe" portaudio

maybe that'll work. If not, run cabal --verbose=3 install portaudio,
perhaps that gives more information about what went wrong.

Daniel, Thank you for your thoughtful reply. I didn't know about those flags. The log is fairly long, and as I'm new to Haskell and Cabal it is mostly meaningless to me. I see very many incidences of "searching for ___ in path. Cannot find ___ on the path" so maybe this is all as simple as me not setting my environment correctly. 

Log:

cabal install portaudio --verbose=3 --with-c2hs="C:\Program Files\Haskell\bin\c2hs.exe" --extra-include-dirs="C:\A\install\programming\portaudio\portaudio\include" --extra-lib-dirs="C:\A\install\programming\portaudio\portaudio\build\msvc\Win32\Release" >log.txt
