It would perhaps be worth it for someone with the right permissions to edit the (five) old versions on hackage, and add upper bounds. That way cabal install wouldn't use this very old version assuming it works (it probably doesn't).

FYI: I've added add a couple of base<4.2 constraints (as GHC 6.12/base-4.2 was the oldest GHC I had installed to prove that Cabal<1.4 is incompatible with base-4.2 ; probably base<4 would be correct as well, but I have no proof for that) That should keep Cabal<1.4 versions out of GHC 7.x install-plans...
