Reason: starting with Cabal 1.8, installing pandoc with '-library
+executable' did not work, since the build-depends in the Library
stanza were ignored. The problem could be solved by repeating the
build-depends in the Executable stanza, but this seems non-ideal
(and might lead to errors later on). The '-library' option isn't
so useful anyway, since to compile pandoc in the first place, you
need a large number of Haskell libraries installed, and in this
case, why balk at another? It was chiefly intended for packagers,
but packagers will need to use a chroot environment anyway, and
they can then simply copy the executable and not the library.
Thanks to Jim Pryor for calling the problem to my attention
in connection with an arch linux package.
It is easier for releases if debian packaging is separate.
+ Removed debian directory and references to debian in Makefile and INSTALL.
+ Made COPYRIGHT and changelog standalone files rather than symlinks to
debian directory.

+ Removed utf8-string cabal configuration flag.
+ Instead, we just include System.IO.UTF8 and Codec.Binary.UTF8.String
from utf8-string package in the source tree, avoiding a dependency
on utf8-string and avoiding crufty custom UTF8 code. (The old
Text.Pandoc.UTF8 had problems with the getContents function.)
+ Removed lots of CPP directives that are no longer needed.
+ In Setup.hs, use '-i..' in running RunTests.hs, so the local UTF8
code will be found.

+ Added Text.Pandoc.UTF8
+ Changed flag name from utf8 to utf8-string
+ Changed CPP MACRO from _UTF8 to _UTF8STRING
+ Import IO functions from Text.Pandoc.UTF8 when utf8-string not available.
+ Removed utf8-string dependency from debian/control.
+ Removed pandoc.cabal.ghc66; we no longer support GHC 6.6
+ Modified INSTALL instructions

Cabal can now be told to build just the library or just the executable.
Updated INSTALL accordingly.

is copied to pandoc.cabal, and the old pandoc.cabal is copied to
pandoc.cabal.orig. Otherwise, pandoc.cabal is copied to pandoc.cabal.orig
but otherwise unmodified. This way, the Makefile will work properly
with either GHC 6.6 or 6.8.
+ The changes in debian/rules from r1066 have been reverted, since they
are no longer needed. Also, debian/rules has been converted to UTF-8.
+ INSTALL instructions have been updated accordingly.

+ pandoc.cabal now uses Cabal configurations and requires Cabal >=1.2.
+ An alternative pandoc.cabal.ghc66 is provided for those who have older
versions of Cabal.
+ Debian build process has been modified to use pandoc.cabal.ghc66,
as a temporary measure until GHC 6.8 gets into debian unstable.
+ INSTALL instructions have been updated.
+ Makefile has been updated to accommodate changes in pandoc.cabal.
+ pandoc.cabal.ghc68 has been removed, since the default version now
works with GHC 6.8.
