That should be enough.

To simplify your life, you could optionally upgrade cabal-install,
unfortunately, by hand.  (I think this involves installing zlib, HTTP
<http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/HTTP-3001.0.3>
and cabal-install).

Also your build slave is complaining it can't find filepath 1.1, which I
think is "normal" in that it's searching in your user package database
instead of the global one.  I think the best approach is probably to
pass --user to runghc Setup configure, which is what cabal-install does
anyway.
