Is it not an option to make your software work with the
not-quite-latest compiler? 6.8 is less than a year old, so I imagine
6.6 is still in quite a few major distro's stable repositories.

I don't know the details of what changed with Cabal between 6.6 and
6.8, and you didn't provide any details of what broke, so this might
not be an option. But something to consider.
