You could use the bundled sqlite3.c instead:

    cabal install --flags=builtin-sqlite3

Unfortunately, the sqlite3 package currently ships with a very old
version of sqlite3.c (version 3.5.9).  I submitted a bug report:

    https://github.com/GaloisInc/sqlite/issues/1

Until a fix is pushed, you can try downloading the latest sqlite3.c
yourself, and placing it at sqlite3.6/sqlite3.c .  I don't know if you
will encounter any compatibility issues or not.

Hope this helps,
