2) build-dependency

 I need to repeat all build-dependency of a library section to  a test suite section. Specifying the library itself to  build-dependency of a test suite section does not work.  This violates the DRY philosophy.

You may specify the same library as a dependency given that you use different "hs-source-dirs". For example, see skein's Cabal file [1]. Of course, you won't be able to directly test any internal function. HTH, [1] http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/skein/0.1.0.5/skein.cabal -- Felipe.
