Do we therefore have no interest in compilers other than GHC? Can we
drop all instances of ifdef __HUGS__ from the code?
I think doing so would require a reasonable amount of work, but would
significantly lower the barrier to contributing to Cabal.

Hi Ben,

The HACKING file in the root directory says
Dependencies policy -------------------
Cabal's policy is to support being built by versions of GHC that are up to 3 years old.
Note that this is what compilers you can use to build Cabal, not what compilers Cabal can build libraries for.
Thanks Ian
