Does no answer to my question mean that there is no-one who knows what kind of bug it is (ghc/cabal/mine) or it is the fact that nobody cares (even the developers of ghc/cabal)?

You posted to the wrong place. I don't follow this list as closely as libraries@haskell.org. It would also help if you can describe your problem and only paste relevant details of your compiler interaction. Which version of Cabal are you using? Handling of _stub files is new in versions > 1.0.1, which are not yet released, but you can get it from CVS / darcs or from the latest tarballs on the web page. peace, isaac
