Comment (by refold):

 @parcs

 Yes, I'm working on this, though I had some delays. One problem is that
 we've already released Cabal 1.18, so this feature will have to go into
 Cabal 1.19.

 Do I understand corectly that right now one must pass `+RTS -Nn` to GHC if
 one wants it to use `n` OS threads?
