I guess I just figured that since Cabal is used by hundreds of

Which is why, when filing a report, you scan/search the bug tracker
first to make sure you're not filing a duplicate :)
Just remember, those thousands of other people are probably thinking
the same thing you are. This is well a well-documented phenomenon in
more serious circumstances:

Well, I just had a look, and it seems every issue I've mentioned already
has a (very old) ticket. So apparently these are all very well-known
issues (and presumably too hard to fix).
