Btw, if you want 32bit+64bit binaries for Ubuntu 12.04LTS in future, you
can steal them of my PPA as well:

For instance, here's how to extract the Linux executable just by using
'wget', 'ar', and 'tar':

  wget https://launchpad.net/~hvr/+archive/ghc/+files/cabal-install-1.20_1.20.0.1-1_amd64.deb
  ar x cabal-install-1.20_1.20.0.1-1_amd64.deb data.tar.gz
  tar xvzf data.tar.gz ./opt/cabal/1.20/bin/cabal

(for the 32bit binary, just replace 'amd64' by 'i386')
