I've uploaded release candidates for Cabal-1.18.1.3 (to be shipped with GHC 7.8) and cabal-install-1.18.0.3.

You can install the RCs like so:

cabal install http://johantibell.com/files/Cabal-1.18.1.3-rc.tar.gz http://johantibell.com/files/cabal-install-1.18.0.3-rc.tar.gz

It's especially important that Cabal-1.18.1.3 gets some testing on OS X using GHC 7.8, as there's a change in how linking is done (see https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/1660).

These RCs correspond to commit d310d87c2c445f52987169a2ce4da03c14070918 on the 1.18 branch in the cabal repo [1]. Note that both Cabal and cabal-install are released from the same repo. If you want to check which commits are new since last release run:
