[Haskell-cafe] Trouble building happy/alex with Stack lts-9.20

[Eric McCorkle]

Can unpack, and happy.cabal is definitely there.  Unfortunately, stack
init or stack build seems to fail with an aeson exception:

AesonException "Error in
$.packages.cassava.constraints.flags['bytestring--lt-0_10_4']: Invalid
flag name: \"bytestring--lt-0_10_4\""
