#817: "main-is" misparsed in if/else, only by sdist

----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
An if/else block which sets the main-is value for an executable based on a
flag is misparsed when running "cabal sdist" (it's parsed correctly when
running "cabal install").
Upon failure, it appears that it's looking for a filename that is the two
main-is options concatenated together. E.g., I get the error "cabal:
HackerMain.hsMain.hs doesn't exist".
The problematic bit looks like:
if flag(hacking)
main-is: HackerMain.hs
else
main-is: Main.hs
My entire config can be found on hpaste: http://hpaste.org/44939/yicabal
(problematic lines around 268).
