#892: Generated Paths file causes warnings

  Reporter:  guest          |        Owner:         
      Type:  defect         |       Status:  new    
  Priority:  normal         |    Milestone:         
 Component:  Cabal library  |      Version:  1.8.0.6
  Severity:  normal         |     Keywords:         
Difficulty:  unknown        |   Ghcversion:         
  Platform:                 |

 With GHC 7.2.1 I get:

 {{{
 [ 9 of 33] Compiling Paths_hlint      (d ist\build\autogen\Paths_hlint.hs,
 dist\
 build\Paths_hlint.o )

 Implicit import declaration:
     Warning: In the use of `catch'
              (imported from Prelude, but defined in System.IO.Error):
              Deprecated: "Please use the new exceptions variant,
 Control.Exception.catch"
 }}}

 My versions are:

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

 The paths file should be fixed, and should also probably put out a flag to
 ignore all warnings at the top - generated and unmodifiable code should
 not be giving out warnings.
