#1338 is the ticket for this. It's more-or-less blocked on extensible
exceptions, though.


By the way, is everyone OK with increasing the minimum GHC required to
6.4.2? Apart from allowing some more of the cruft to be removed, Cabal
supports building with GHC >= 6.4.2, so this would allow us to use Cabal
to do more of the building work.

For 6.8 we required >= 6.2, so that would be the same number of major
releases.


Thanks
Ian
