Except I'm not using cabal-install, I'm using my system's
(source-based) package manager, which uses runhaskell Setup under the
hood.

And yes, it's Cabal-1.18.

Since these are all packages being built on the system level, I'm
pretty sure it's not using any old versions of libraries built by
cabal-install-1.16.
