Comment(by duncan):

 If you change to `cabal-version: >= 1.8` then it should do what you
 expect.

 This was an old bug but we could not immediately fix it since there were
 lots of old packages that accidentally relied on this bug. So the fixed
 behaviour is opt-in by requiring a sufficiently new cabal version.

 I'll leave this ticket open for a bit so you can check if this does indeed
 fix it for you. Also, if you have any suggestion on how to make this more
 discoverable, that'd also be welcome.
