The stb-image package on hackage has carriage returns (^M) at the end of some lines. This confused hlibrary.mk from the Debian haskell-devscripts. Are these characters legal in a .cabal file? I haven't found any mention of valid line terminators. If not, then I'll work with the author of stb-image, otherwise I'll fix the Debian tool.

They are whitespace, and so allowed. The library strips trailing whitespace from all lines.
