Odd paths on Windows

Description
If, on Windows, I do
ghc --make Setup.hs ./Setup configure --prefix=c:/cygwin/home/ian/local/haskell ./Setup haddock ./Setup build ./Setup install --user
then cabal puts the binaries under c:/cygwin/home/ian/local/haskell/Haskell/, which is a bit odd. However, it puts the documentation in c:/Program Files/Common Files/mtl-1.0/, which is even odder. If we are going to put things here then a Haskell/ directory makes a lot of sense, but better still would be to put the docs somewhere under the prefix that the user asked us to install under.
