Yeah, I think that's the common consensus; there is _some_
documentation of the Paths_foo module in the Cabal user guide, but it
doesn't cover much.

One thing I do wish was possible: the ability to use a "stub"
Paths_foo module for testing purposes (as currently you have to have
done a "cabal configure && cabal build" to get it), but I couldn't
find a way to do so without Cabal packaging the stub version when
creating the distribution tarball :s
