 I just installed the latest `cabal`:

 {{{
 $ cabal --version
 cabal-install version 0.10.2
 using version 1.10.1.0 of the Cabal library
 }}}

 I'm trying to rewrite the custom test-suite of my
 [http://hackage.haskell.org/package/threads threads] package to the new
 Cabal test-suite feature. The original `.cabal` contains:

 {{{
 ...
 executable test-threads
   main-is: test.hs
   ...
 }}}

 When I rewrite that to:

 {{{
 ...
 test-suite test-threads
   type: exitcode-stdio-1.0

   main-is: test.hs
   ...
 }}}

 And than configure it, I get the following error:

 {{{
 $ cabal configure
 cabal: threads.cabal:60: The 'type' field is required for test suites. The
 available test types are: exitcode-stdio-1.0
 }}}

 I attached the package.

 Duncan on `#haskell` figured out that if a .cabal contains conditionals,
 like the one I have, the bug appears.
