+synopsis: clarify Cabal "configure messages
+packages: Cabal
+prs: #9476
+
+synopsis: {
+
+	Cabal can issue a number of error messages referencing "Setup configure",
+	but it simply references "configure" which could mean any of three
+	things (Setup configure, the package's "configure" script, or "cabal
+	configure". This has recently caught out even Cabal devs. Clarify these
+	messages.
