FWIW, I agree. Also, having the rpm code built with cabal will only ensure it keeps compiling. I won't necessarily keep it correct, and in my experience it is also common to see "temporary" (error "unhandled case")s appear in such situations, where many contributors are not interested in the rpm code, and are unable to easily test it.
