Neither one. See cabal-module(5), especially the example mentioning
cabal-bundler. And productivity/hledger for an example.
The idea is to mention all required dependencies (on packages
available on hackage.haskell.org) in MODCABAL_MANIFEST, and build
all of them together with the port (games/hledger in this case),
so we don't need hundreds of hs-ports for providing end-user haskell
packages.
