#926: bootstrap.sh with --global ignores PREFIX
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------

Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.10.2.0
Severity: normal | Keywords:

----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
If you run the bootstrap for cabal-install and specify `--global`, the
script ignores the PREFIX environment variable. This means that it's
impossible to install anywhere else besides `/usr/local/` using
`--global`.
Here is a patch.
