Cabal-install internal error with any use

Any attempt to use cabal-install fails with an internal error.

Used FreeBSD (9.1) port hs-haskell-platform and built with hs-colour support, LLVM (3.2) backend, and profiling enabled. Warnings were given that the version of LLVM used was untested, but no issues were apparent when compiling.
