I'm not sure, and I can't test on a Mac at the moment, because mine is
in the shop. Can you try it this way?

cabal unpack pandoc
cd pandoc 1.2.1
cabal install

By the way, here's the function from Setup.hs that creates the man page
by running pandoc on a markdown version of it:

-- | Build a man page from markdown source in man/man1.
makeManPage manpage = do
let manDir = "man" </> "man1"
let pandoc = "dist" </> "build" </> "pandoc" </> "pandoc"
let page = manDir </> manpage
let source = manDir </> manpage <.> "md"
modifiedDeps <- modifiedDependencies page [source]
unless (null modifiedDeps) $ do
ec <- runProcess pandoc ["-s", "-S", "-r", "markdown", "-w", "man", "-o", page, source]
Nothing Nothing Nothing Nothing (Just stderr) >>= waitForProcess
case ec of
ExitSuccess -> putStrLn $ "Created " ++ manDir </> manpage
_ -> do putStrLn $ "Error creating " ++ manDir </> manpage
exitWith ec

So, you could try running the command manually and seeing what happens:

dist/build/padoc/pandoc -s -S -r markdown -w man -o man/man1/pandoc.1 man/man1/pandoc.1.md

I get a bus error and an empty pandoc.1:

bash-3.2$ dist/build/pandoc/pandoc -s -S -r markdown -w man -o
man/man1/pandoc.1 man/man1/pandoc.1.md
Bus error

bash-3.2$ ls -l man/man1/pandoc.1

I don't have a clue. Is it specific to pandoc?
Are you able to build other cabal packages?

Yes, so far I get this behavior only with pandoc, though I think pandoc is
unusual in running itself during the setup process.

I was able to get the build & install to go through other than these man
pages. The trick was to keep doing "cabal install" (I think) from the the
project directory until each empty .1 file had been created. Then it went
on to installation of the executable.

Has anyone else tried "cabal install pandoc" on Mac OS X? Results?

I finally got my Mac back from the shop. I installed the latest Haskell
platform package, then used cabal install to install pandoc, and it all
went off without a hitch. I didn't run into the "bus error."
