cabal-dev install fails to resolve dependencies for new yesod project

[HairyDude]

I am running Windows XP SP3 with Haskell Platform 2012, in a mingw shell. Here are the original repro steps:

1. cabal install yesod-platform
2. Make sure yesod is in your path
3. yesod init -- call the project "cabaldev-bugtest"
4. cd cabaldev-bugtest
5. cabal --dry-run install
6. cabal-dev --dry-run install

cabal successfully resolves the project's dependencies (right now on my system all it wants to install is persistent-sqlite). cabal-dev does not:

You can still repro if you delete everything in the cabaldev-bugtest directory except the .cabal file and cabal-dev directory, and use cabal --config-file=cabal-dev/cabal.config. The .cabal file itself can also be simplified a bit. See https://github.com/HairyDude/cabaldev-bugtest for a test case.
