Since the other one has been closed, can we move forward with this? Would really be useful for quick debugging on Alpine with rootbld :)

Not passing `num_find` does not work as it defaults to `1`. Using `None` does not work because—as you pointed out—there is no explicit handling for `num_find is None`. However, I...

The test suite uses [badtls.io](https://github.com/wbond/badtls.io) and it seems that the service is no longer functional. For example, according to the [badtls README](https://github.com/wbond/badtls.io?tab=readme-ov-file#domains), `domain-match.badtls.io:10000` should be a "good" configuration. However, connecting...

I believe this issue to be the source of a major annoyance for [Guix](https://guix.gnu.org) users, a nix-like functional package manager. Contrary to nix, Guix makes heavy use of `GHC_PACKAGE_PATH` to...

Looking at the [revert commit message](https://github.com/haskell/cabal/commit/9c14b642508d426480cd4d49e5a98611066c0752) it seems that it was reverted because it was deemed necessary to cache/store the `GHC_PACKAGE_PATH` value in `LocalBuildInfo` during `cabal configure`. Doing that is,...

FYI: Guix now patches Cabal with a variant of the patch proposed by Thomas Tuegal: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=9236047476e728b9ae1746d56b8547e023f72307 for the reasons [outlined above](https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/3728#issuecomment-1860050861). Would still be cool to get a proper patch...

Maybe we could also get this committed through Hackage trustees? I did that previously for #44 in https://github.com/haskell-infra/hackage-trustees/issues/399 the process is quite straightforward and would allow installing template-haskell with GHC...

Hacked this together rather quickly, let me know if you think it is worthwhile to peruse this approach further or if you prefer an alternative design.
