Thanks!

Please don't include the hidden Mac "._*" files in the tarball.
They actually break the build for me on Linux:

:
Building haskell-platform-2012.2.0.0
"/usr/bin/ghc" "--make" "Setup" "-o" "Setup" "-package" "Cabal"

Setup: Multiple cabal files found.
Please use only one of: ./haskell-platform.cabal, ./._haskell-platform.cabal

Error:
Configuring the haskell-platform-2012.2.0.0 package failed
make: *** [build.stamp] Error 2


THough of course it could be argued that Cabal should ignore dot files...
Otherwise it looks fine to me: I am testing with ghc-7.4.2 RC1 fwiw.
Thanks for the great work.
