The check is now active. 

If you upload and think that your package is rejected in error then
please email the cabal-devel list or file a ticket:
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/

Note that currently "cabal upload [--check]" is pretty awful at
reporting the package quality errors that hackage generates. The current
workaround is to use -v3 to see the whole HTTP conversation, the tail of
which will include package quality error messages. This should be
improved for a future release (see ticket #549 if you'd like to work on
it).
