How are we supposed to coordinate lib:Cabal <-> GHC releases?
PS: As a fun fact, Stack(age) pays an almost guaranteed compile-time penalty here as [all recent Stackage snapshots seem to include lib:Cabal-2.4.1.0 in their snapshot freeze file](https://www.stackage.org/package/Cabal/snapshots), and compiling lib:Cabal is notoriously costly.8.8.1https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/16508Hadrian: invalid ghci wrapper script2019-05-01T13:08:54ZSylvain HenryHadrian: invalid ghci wrapper scriptWhen we install an Hadrian generated bindist with "make install", we obtain an invalid ghci wrapper script.
