It looks quite clean (no funny business in Setup.lhs).  I would favor
using this cabalized version over the other.  Thanks!

So, autoconf/configure generate cryptol.buildinfo from
cryptol.buildinfo.in.  Did you change configure.ac much?  And the
Makefile is no longer needed at all, right?

It works well for me, and is reasonably easy to apply (attached are three files; do a 'darcs get --lazy http://darcs.net' with Darcs-2 to get the latest, and copy the files into it, the usual autoconf, and it should then work as normal; if this doesn't work for you, I'd appreciate knowing).
