I think the change is correct and required in general. cabal-install-0.14.0 warns if there are reverse dependencies of reinstalled packages, because these might be broken after the installation process. If the set of potentially broken packages is non-empty, it implicitly adds -v, because without it, the user won't be able to see which packages are reinstalled. I'm sorry that this causes problems for you.
