However, the same thing happened to me when I tried emerge cabal so I solved it with upgrading ghc from 6.12.3 to 7.4.1-r1 and using dev-haskell/x11-1.5.0.0-r1

Did you install ghc-6.12.3 before switching to hardened or after? I think ghc only recently got basic support for PIC.
After switching. This is newly installed system. I also remember, that * I emerged some version of ghc and dev-haskell/x11 without issues. * synced portage (that would be: Timestamp of tree: Mon, 19 Nov 2012 00:45:01 +0000) * and since then I couldn't emerge the x11 or cabal again
Ok, i'm closing this as WONTFIX, as ghc-7.4 got stabilized. ghc-7.4 seems to work fine on hardened here.
