Comment (by simonmar):
Yes, we could force a clean if the `package.conf` has changed. One reason
I didn't want to go this route was that it doesn't help if you're using
`setup register --in-place`, where you don't actually need to register
after building a package. But I guess you aren't doing that, so depending
on the modification time of `package.conf` would work for you.
A workaround is to use `-fomit-interface-pragmas` when compiling xmonad,
BTW. That will affect inter-module optimisations, though.
