+               @cabal-helper@ provides a library which wraps the internal use of executables
+               to lift the restrictions imposed by linking against versions of GHC before
+               @7.10@.
+               
+               @cabal-helper@ uses a wrapper executable to compile the actual cabal-helper
+               executable at runtime while linking against an arbitrary version of
+               Cabal. This runtime-compiled helper executable is then used to extract
+               various bits and peices from Cabal\&#39;s on disk state (dist/setup-config)
+               written by it&#39;s configure command.
+               
+               In addition to this the wrapper executable also supports installing any
+               version of Cabal from hackage in case it cannot be found in any available
+               package database. The wrapper installs these instances of the Cabal library
+               into a private package database so as to not interfere with the user&#39;s
+               packages.
+               
+               Furthermore the wrapper supports one special case namely reading a state
+               file for Cabal itself. This is needed as Cabal compiles it&#39;s Setup.hs using
+               itself and not using any version of Cabal installed in any package database.
+               
+               @cabal-helper@ can compile with @Cabal &gt;= 1.14@ but requires @Cabal &gt;= 1.16@
+               at runtime.
