cabal sdist doesn't include c headers

Hi all,
I have a cabal package which includes some C code. In the library
description I have the two fields:
include-dirs: contrib/libpuz/include
includes: contrib/libpuz/include/puz.h
But the file contrib/libpuz/include/puz.h is missing from the tarball
generated by running "cabal sdist". There are C sources (mentioned
using a "c-sources" line) which depend on this header.
I'm not sure if this is a bug or the desired behavior. What is the
recommended way to get this file into the sdist tarball? For now,
I've added the header to the "extra-source-files" field. This works
fine.
cabal --version reports:
cabal-install version 0.6.2
using version 1.6.0.3 of the Cabal library
Thanks for your help!
