GLFW not working in Cabal 1.18
The package GLFW is not building in Cabal 1.18. Setup.hs [1] depends on `rawSystemStdInOut` [2] that changed signature between 1.16 and 1.18. Is this considered a public API of Cabal?

the work around i did for cabal 1.18 compatibility for llvm-base can be
found here:
https://github.com/bos/llvm/blob/master/base/Setup.hs#L116-L144
this used the fact that cabal exposes the cabal version as a library value
to generate a correct wrapper for either API version
alternatively, you can change your setup.hs so that api isn't needed.
also: before emailing cafe, its always good to email the listed maintainers
first! (i've included them on CC for this email)

The package GLFW is not building in Cabal 1.18.
Setup.hs [1] depends on `rawSystemStdInOut` [2] that changed signature between 1.16 and 1.18.
Is this considered a public API of Cabal?
Cabal 1.16 rawSystemStdInOut :: Verbosity -> FilePath -> [String] -> Maybe (String, Bool) -> Bool -> IO (String, String, ExitCode)
Cabal 1.18 rawSystemStdInOut :: Verbosity -> FilePath -> [String] -> Maybe FilePath -- new arg -> Maybe [(String, String)] -- new arg -> Maybe (String, Bool) -> Bool -> IO (String, String, ExitCode)

Consider "cabal install --cabal-lib-version=1.16". Replace 1.16 by the correct number. Use "ghc-pkg list Cabal" to find the correct number. http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/PVP allows 1.16->1.18 to change public API.
