hi,
should we use #if __GLASGOW_HASKELL__ < 710 or #if !MIN_VERSION_base(4,8,0) ?
currently both are used in different places, and i have no idea if there is a difference/if it matters. if it does not, i suggest conventionizing one of the two.
MIN_VERSION_base is defined by Cabal, so it is not available during bootstrapping. This means we unfortunately need to use __GLASGOW_HASKELL__ in Cabal, even though it isn't really the right macro. It should be safe to use MIN_VERSION_base in cabal-install. -- Thomas Tuegel
