cabal uninstall process-1.0.1.1 is what you want to do,

except "cabal uninstall" doesn't exist (yet) and you meant "ghc-pkg unregister" i guess.

and never, ever[1] use cabal upgrade.

If you're interested in the gory details and why it's a bug while at the same time not being one, there's a lengthy thread starting with http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.haskell.cafe/51759
