Find the right solution for Cabal's hardcoded HOME/.cabal/setup-exe-cache.

The underlying Cabal issue is tracked as haskell/cabal#1242.

HOME/.cabal/setup-exe-cache is now deleted automatically before the Cabal directory is built.

As HOME/.cabal is expected not to exist in order to bootstrap cabal-install (#16), this eliminates one possible reason for build failure, seen when rebuilding multiple times on the same machine.

Note Haste requires HOME/.cabal/setup-exe-cache to exist. (valderman/haste-compiler#257)
