[Haskell-cafe] Cabal 1.8 ignores bounds in test-suite sections?

I have a cabal file with two test suites

    https://github.com/tomjaguarpaw/haskell-opaleye/blob/master/opaleye.cabal

If I change the dependency in "test-suite tutorial", say, from `profunctors`
to `profunctors >= 0.6` then the bound is completely ignored and cabal will
attempt to compile and run the test suite even without a suitable version
present.

Is this expected behaviour?

Tom
