Yay! Does that mean we could do the same in Cabal HEAD? :-) 

That is of course, assuming we do not intend to ship a Cabal-1.4 with
GHC 6.8.3 which is not out of the realms of possibility depending on how
compatible it is in practise.

It'd mean we could remove a lot from Cabal's compat/ and also drop
support for generating the old ghc-6.2 style of package registration
files.
