Comment 2 for bug 231099

This cabal package should probably just be updated entirely. Cabal 1.1.3 is old, very old. To give you an idea, Hackage doesn't even have a version that old (http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/Cabal). So this package should be updated to 1.1.6, 1.2.1, 1.2.2.0, 1.2.3.0, and soon enough 1.4 will be released.

It's particularly important that we get up to 1.2 at least, since that introduced the Flag configuration syntax which Haskell packages are increasingly commonly using.
