Man pages are shipped prebuilt in cabal tarball, but will not be available
when cloning git and running cabal install.

Remove post-copy hook 'myPostCopy': it's easy to write one based on
'myPostInst', so just wait until someone complains that it's missing.
Remove most comments.
Put long type sigs on one line like in the other source files.

The creation of the 'git-annex-shell' symlink was in 'postInst' hook.
I combined it with the man-page installation in a 'postInst' hook and
a 'postCopy' hook. I don't understand how to use the `cabal copy`
command, but the examples I looked at defined both hooks.
Relevant comments from the source:
* man-page installation:
See http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Cabal/Developer-FAQ#Installing_manpages.
Based on pandoc's and lhs2tex's 'Setup.installManpages' and
'postInst' hooks.
My understanding: 'postCopy' is run for `cabal copy`, 'postInst' is
run for `cabal inst`, and copy is not a generalized install, so you
have to write two nearly identical hooks.
Summary of hooks:
http://www.haskell.org/cabal/release/cabal-latest/doc/API/Cabal/Distribution-Simple-UserHooks.htm--
Other people are also confused:
* Bug: 'postCopy' and 'postInst' are confusing:
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/718
* A cabal maintainer suggests using 'postCopy' instead of
'postInst', because `cabal install` is `cabal copy` followed by
`cabal register`:
http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/libraries/2008-March/009416.html
Although that sounds desirable, it's not true, as the reply and
experiments indicate.
* the `cabal copy` command:
???: Not sure how you're supposed to use this. E.g., when I do
cabal install --prefix=/tmp/git-annex-install
cabal copy --deistdir=/tmp/git-annex-copy
I get the copy under
/tmp/git-annex-copy/tmp/git-annex-install
Also, `cabal install` fails when given a relative --prefix.

This works with `cabal-dev install .`, but `cabal sdist` does not yet
include the man pages (tried adding a `make $(mans)` before `cabal
sdist` in `make sdist`, but no luck).
XXX: Need to go back and replace spaces with tabs.

Don't check if configure indicated checks won't work. This should fix a
FTBFS on mipsel, where configure correctly detects the checks won't work,
while garbage is returned for disk space info at git-annex runtime. It also
means that, when built via cabal, disk space checks are not enabled,
unfortunatly.

Rather than running make, which runs configure, let Setup.hs just include
the configure code. The standalone configure is retained for use by the
Makefile.
This may work better with cabal-dev, since it avoids the Makefile running
ghc, and lets cabal handle all the compiler running, with whatever
flags it uses to expose dependencies.

This is substantially slower than using make, does not build or install
documentation, does not run the test suite, and is not particularly
recommended, but could be useful to some.
