I had this same problem installing gtk2hs originally.  As some helpful 
posters on reddit pointed out at the time 
(http://www.reddit.com/r/haskell/comments/c7uh3/gtk2hs_now_on_hackage/) 
you need:

cabal install gtk2hs-buildtools alex happy

before instlaling gtk2hs, and also to make sure that the location where 
cabal puts its binaries is in your $PATH.

Thanks,

Neil.
