   Due to experiments requiring a different cpp some options passed by default (like -traditional-cpp -std=gnu99) were omitted, breaking building of (apparently some) libraries on some platforms. This has been changed back, the default is now conservative use of the default cpp, which 'should' not break on your platform. Please check/verify this, thanks.

   Now I get the following errors (uhc head):

   ~$ cabal --uhc install transformers
   Resolving dependencies...
   Downloading transformers-0.3.0.0...

   cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
   transformers-0.3.0.0 failed during the building phase. The exception was:
   ExitFailure 1

   The offending line seems to be:

   #if !(MIN_VERSION_base(4,4,0))

   When doing cabal --uhc -v install, I can see the following uhc command tries to get executed:

   /usr/local/bin/uhc --pkg-build=transformers-0.3.0.0 --hide-all-packages --pkg-searchpath=/usr/local/lib/uhc-1.1.5/lib/pkg --pkg-searchpath=/home/robin/.cabal/lib --package=uhcbase --package=base -idist/build -i. -idist/build/autogen --odir=dist/build -O1 Control/Applicative/Backwards Control/Applicative/Lift Control/Monad/IO/Class Control/Monad/Trans/Class Control/Monad/Trans/Cont Control/Monad/Trans/Error Control/Monad/Trans/Identity Control/Monad/Trans/List Control/Monad/Trans/Maybe Control/Monad/Trans/Reader Control/Monad/Trans/RWS Control/Monad/Trans/RWS/Lazy Control/Monad/Trans/RWS/Strict Control/Monad/Trans/State Control/Monad/Trans/State/Lazy Control/Monad/Trans/State/Strict Control/Monad/Trans/Writer Control/Monad/Trans/Writer/Lazy Control/Monad/Trans/Writer/Strict Data/Functor/Compose Data/Functor/Constant Data/Functor/Identity Data/Functor/Product Data/Functor/Reverse

   I don't see any --cpp directives, and when I tried to add one, the result was the same.
