Johan, was it you who cherry-picked it from master? Wasn't 1.18 supposed to still support 6.12?
This is my fault. I don't know if it's worth another Cabal release to fix it though. 6.12 is more than 3 years old now.
Fwiw, GHC 6.12.x was the last major GHC release *not* to support 'default-language: Haskell2010' out-of-the-box. Btw, are there any Linux distribution release out there which have not reached end-of-life and yet provide GHC 6.12.x as their default GHC? Or put differently, how many active GHC <=6.12.x users are there, which haven't upgraded GHC but still want to upgrade Cabal & cabal-install? Cheers, hvr
