In my opinion the condition should be that if you publish a package on Hackage then there should not be a package with the same version but different content somewhere else. Thus I propose that package versions are increased immediately in the repository according to the PVP if something is changed. That's how I handle versioning for my private packages, too.

Sounds reasonable. This is a GHC internal matter in my opinion, as they're not releasing these libraries under the non-working version numbers.
