 With `cabal configure --extra-lib-dirs=foo`

 $ cabal build
 Preprocessing library HENet-0.0.1...
 Building HENet-0.0.1...
 Registering HENet-0.0.1...
 cabal.exe: HENet-0.0.1: library-dirs: .libs is a relative path (use
 --force to
 override)

 Originally reported on irc:

 <dcoutts> jeffz: the right solution here would be for cabal to make the
 paths absolute before passing them on to ghc-pkg
