Re: bedandbreakfast needing a release

      Wow, I totally forgot about "if impl(ghc>=7.8)". That's the way to go of
course!

Hi Mike, something like this should do the trick (untested):
```
flag ghc78
  description:       Using GHC >= 7.8
  default:           True
library
  if flag(ghc78)
    build-depends:
      base >= 4.7
      bedandbreakfast >= 5
  else
    build-depends:
      base < 4.7
      bedandbreakfast >= 4
```
This uses a non-manual flag so cabal will toggle it if it needs to.
btw, why not simply use a "if impl(ghc>=7.8)" conditional w/o resorting
to flags?
