Here's what I'd do, with the caveat that I'm still a Haskell novice:

1) Check your ~/.ghci file and make sure it's not doing anything
strange.  (You may not have one, which is fine.)

2) If rebuilding your cabal-installed libs and reinstalling cabal is
fine, delete your ~/.ghc and ~/.cabal directories, make sure ghci
works, and then re-install cabal and go from there.
