I still have to find my noticeses about wether cBooterVersion affects more than only the ghc lib.
Did a quick test the other day; bootstrapping ghc-7.0.3 from ghc-6.12.3 with two different VERSION_DATE files. The only visible change was in the ghc library, so this part indeed isn't worth any work.
so, in summary, there is no easy and obvious way to avoid the other interface changes (e.g. in base) that occur when building with 7.0.2 instead of 6.12, and therefore a double-round of uploads of ghc in Debian cannot be avoided?
