Comment (by siddhanathan):

 This example does fail outside a Nix-shell. I just had the same issue with
 GHC 7.10.1

 Reproducing should be simple. Just install the nix package manager
 ([http://nixos.org/nix/]), copy the files in the gist to a new folder, run
 `nix-shell` in the folder, and then `cabal sandbox init && cabal install`.
