 Currently saying {{{cabal list haxml}}} works fine and returns hits for
 {{{HaXml}}} which is good. The same does not apply when it comes to
 {{{cabal list haxml}}}. So what it should do is to look case-insnesitively
 for haxml. If the match is not exact case-sensitively and there are more
 than one packages matching case-insensitively then it should abort with a
 message listing the matches. This should not often happen since within any
 single HackageDB server, we check that packages names are unique case-
 insensitively but it's possible to get ambiguities if cabal-install has
 been configured to use multiple repos.
