I would *guess* that hsc2hs is always distributed with ghc. I know it
is on Linux and BSD -- I am not sure about Windows. If you build ghc
from source, I believe it is automatically built and installed.
If you want to support hugs as well, then they would need hschs-hugs
installed. Debian includes that with hugs by default -- not sure about
anyone else.

ps. Also, if it matters, cpphs is typically *not* available by default
(but cpp probably is).
