[Haskell-cafe] how to force hackage to use ghc 6.12.3

Hi,

I have been releasing packages on hackage that do not build with ghc 7.0.* due 
to  a bug that will be fixed in ghc 7.2.1.   (One of the packages is 
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/AERN-Basics)
I was hoping hackage will try also ghc 6.12.3 but it does not.  Is there some 
way I can change the cabal file to help hackage to compile it with 6.12.3 and 
generate haddock?  The package requires base >= 4 so I cannot try base < 4.

Michal
