[Haskell-cafe] Travis/Cabal help

[Edward Z. Yang]

Hello David,

I can take a closer work, but here's how you can debug it yourself:

1. Repro it on not-Travis (given that it's a solver error, should be
easy)
2. Turn on -v
3. Look through the entrails to see why criterion is not satisfiable.
   Maybe even just look at the dependencies in the benchmarks section.
   Could it be a cyclic dependency problem?
