bedandbreakfast needing a release

[Adam Bergmark]

Hi Mike, something like this should do the trick (untested):

```
flag ghc78
  description:       Using GHC >= 7.8
  default:           True

library
  if flag(ghc78)
    build-depends:
      base >= 4.7
      bedandbreakfast >= 5
  else
    build-depends:
      base < 4.7
      bedandbreakfast >= 4
```

This uses a non-manual flag so cabal will toggle it if it needs to.

HTH,
Adam
