Stuck again on submodules

Help! I can't build ghc!
I get this
utils/ghc-pkg/Main.hs:1160:24:
Not in scope: `showSimpleInstalledPackageInfoField'
Perhaps you meant `showInstalledPackageInfoField' (imported from Distribution.InstalledPackageInfo)
And indeed, my libraries/Cabal is way behind

commit 14c5a3f78c00772cf54c2fd5c920a64d53e6f594

Fix typos
"git submodule status" says
14c5a3f78c00772cf54c2fd5c920a64d53e6f594 libraries/Cabal (1_10_branch_forked-1682-g14c5a3f)
1f9f7175e747aad7c424f5b12be5b95f15286f0b libraries/Win32 (2009-06-25-50-g1f9f717)
...etc
In another tree entirely "git submodule status" says
b4d0c0... libraries/Cabal
which looks right, because that commit does futz with showInstalledPackageInfoField.
So it looks as if my main GHC repo somehow has the wrong commit for Cabal. How do I make it right?
This is so frustrating. Thanks
Simon
