Old description:

> Fixed in the 2009.2.1 isntaller.

New description:

 The Windows installer currently writes the absolute path to the
 "extralibs" directory to package.conf. It should use a path relative to
 the GHC installation directory instead to make the Haskell Platform
 directory relocatable.

 In general, it would be also nice if cabal-install didn't write absolute
 paths to package.conf.
