Comment:

 The only reason putting `-fno-warn-deprecated-flags` in the Cabal file
 doesn't work is because Cabal is a special case, and wants to be
 bootstrappable with just `ghc --make`. I think we should just live with a
 couple of warnings in this case, rather than going to lots of effort to
 work around the problem.

 Also, the current warnings at least will stop being a problem as support
 for building with older GHC versions is dropped.
