 Hello,

 when running something like:
  runhaskell Setup.lhs haddock --hyperlink-source --hscolour-
 css=/usr/local/share/hscolour-1.9/hscolour.css

 Cabal fails with: Setup.lhs: haddock --hyperlink-source requires Haddock
 version 0.8 or later

 This seems to be the involved code (from Distribution.Simple.Haddock (line
 148):

     when (hsColour && not have_src_hyperlink_flags) $
          die "haddock --hyperlink-source requires Haddock version 0.8 or
 later"

 Cabal 1.2.3.0 (with ghc-6.8.2) and Haddock 2.0.0.0.

 Cheers,
 Andrea Rossato
