If I've understood correctly, then haskell-src-exts would be more than just a boot package: It would be intimately tied to GHC. Any change in its interface would need to be reflected in the compiler (e.g. compiler/hsSyn/Convert.lhs, compiler/deSugar/DsMeta.hs). I'd suggest that it be added to the list of packages that cabal doesn't upgrade by default (http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7200).
