I just retried this and stumbled over a problem. I did a Google search 
and managed to navigate to here:

http://www.haskell.org/cabal/download.html

But this gives a download link for cabal-install 0.6.2, which doesn't work.

Performing a second Google search and finding the *latest* cabal-install 
works. (But... why is this page not linking to the latest one? Or to 
Hackage, where the latest stable version lives...)
