either
1) support two different cabal files and propose users to manually
rename one they need to .cabal
2) suggest 6.4 users to switch to newest cabal version which supports
config sections and use them
3) install library via makefile, custom haskell script or smth like
this

you also can combine these ideas :)

the more interesting question "how to provide compatibility with 7.0,
7.2 and other future ghc versions" :D
