-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
There's some work to do on 6.8 to ensure that we can still bootstrap from
 HC files.  This will be slightly harder due to the new Cabal-based build
 system for libraries, and the solution will probably involve 'setup
 makefile' somewhere.  Also we'll need to update the building guide to
 include the new instructions, whatever they may be.
