   * Auto-reconfiguration when .cabal is newer than setup-config

   This patch adds "ConfigFlags" to the "LocalBuildInfo" and reuses them to
   perform "configureAction" when .cabal file is changed. This has
   the same effect as re-running "configure" with the most recent used
   set of options, which should be the sensible thing to do.

   Closes #294, #477, #309 and #518.

 I have not yet checked if it actually fixes this ticket though. I think
 this one might be more tricky than the others.
