In order to test my proposed solution (see below), I tried building
web-routes-quasi 0.3.0 from git, but I get another cabal version conflict
failure:

| Resolving dependencies...
| cabal: cannot configure template-haskell-2.4.0.1. It requires base >=4.2
&& <5
| For the dependency on base >=4.2 && <5 there are these packages:
base-4.2.0.0

| base-4.2.0.1 was excluded because of the top level dependency base -any

I assume this means that it needs ghc 6.12 (which I haven't installed
yet). Do you really need template-haskell-2.4.*, or would 2.3.* suffice as
well? In that case you could relax the version constraint.

>From a quick look at the source of yesod, it /seems/ that it may work with
MonadCatchIO-transformers-0.1.* as well. Is there any reason yesod asks for
>=0.2.2 ? If not, relaxing this version constraint might fix things.
