Changes (by kosmikus):

  * milestone:  => cabal-install-0.16


Comment:

 The modular solver can in principle be adapted easily to produce several
 solutions to the dependency resolution problem. But there can be far too
 many in practice so that trying them all probably is not feasible. Using
 the earliest versions by default is simple enough, though.
