 Using cabal-install 0.6.0 (and 1.6.0.1 of the Cabal library) the following
 line fails to parse in the config file (in ~/.cabal/config) :

 compiler: GHC

 which generates the following error :
 Warning: Error parsing config file /Users/peterhigley/.cabal/config:1:
 "GHC"
 Warning: Using default configuration.

 But changing it to this resolves the problem :

 compiler: ghc

 My config file was auto-generated from an older cabal-install.

 This is easiest to reproduce by running "cabal update".

 I am reproing on a Mac, but an e-mail was sent to haskell-cafe from a
 Windows user as well.
