Comment (by duncan):

 See also the thread on cabal-devel starting with:
 http://haskell.org/pipermail/cabal-devel/2008-May/002818.html

 The conclusion of the discussion was that we should either remove the tags
 completely, or at minimum change the Eq instance to consider only the
 `versionBranch`. I was going to put a proposal to removing them through
 the libraries submission process. I suppose I should get round to doing
 that.
