Comment(by duncan):

 Note that with ghc-6.12 this problem is less significant because ghc+cabal
 will detect the inconsistency before there is a chance of segfaults. This
 is because the package ABI hashes are now tracked. If in future we install
 with the ABI hash as part of the install directory then the problem would
 be fully solved.
