Comment(by batterseapower):

 If you were to instead build the setup executable as follows it would work
 flawlessly:

 {{{
 cd dist/setup && /usr/bin/ghc -v --make setup.hs -o setup -package-conf
 /Users/mbolingbroke/Programming/Checkouts/hackage-server/hackage-build
 /build-cache/local.conf.d -package Cabal-1.10.2.0
 }}}
