Changes (by duncan):

  * milestone:  Cabal-1.4 => Cabal-1.6

Comment:

 This is actually quite hard because we have no way in Haskell of portably
 setting the permissions bits for user/group/other.

 We could do it perhaps if we used cpp and used functions from the posix
 lib.

 I'm punting from the immediate milestone.
