I'm no user of cabal myself, but a few days ago when I thought I'd
take a look at the sandboxing feature of it I ran into a similar
situation, cabal wanted to install an older version of some package
for no apparent reason.  I just gave up and decided that I'd have to
postpone playing with cabal :)

HTTP 4000.2.12 is in [haskell-core].

I invented the term Object-Oriented, and I can tell you I did not have
C++ in mind.
