Ah, but it's not as easy as you'd think. The instructions above fail to
mention several required or strongly recommended fields. (E.g.,
apparently Category and Synopsis are both required, Cabal-Version is
strongly recommended, several fields are meant to be in the Library
subsection...) And then of course there's the question of choosing a
licence. But I think I'm nearly there now.

Oh, one last thing. I know I'm going to regret this for the rest of my
life, but... which version of Base should it depend on?

This at least *was* fairly trivial. ;-) [The only hard part being
figuring out how to manually run Haddock...]
