[Haskell-cafe] Cabal Install & Links to Source from Haddock Docs

[R Hayes]

Thank you.  As it turns out, I was aware of that recipe.  What I  
wanted was to be able to use cabal install's nice dependency following  
features and still get source links in my documentation.

Personally, I feel that inclusion of source and docs should be the  
DEFAULT for cabal, as well as for binary distributions of ghc.
