I've slowly been working away on some way to deal with the addition of
x-revisions in Cabal files.  My plan at the moment is to include it in
the `pkgrel` in this way

  haskell-zlib-0.5.4.2-76-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

becomes

  haskell-zlib-0.5.4.2-0.76-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

given that the x-revision is 0.

This of course has the slight drawback that everyone will have to
re-install all packages :(

I'd love to hear if anyone has a better suggestion, in particular if
it means not having to re-install.  (I think I've found a way that
won't require a re-build.)

Most software today is very much like an Egyptian pyramid with
millions of bricks piled on top of each other, with no structural
integrity, but just done by brute force and thousands of slaves.
