I have not tried it with current Cabal, but in the past, Cabal and thus 
Setup.hs could even run on Hugs. This would not be possible with TH.

Is it possible to write the Setup program without the Cabal functionality 
that has changed?

If not, how about uploading two versions of the package that only differ 
in the Setup.hs script and the Cabal-Version field in llvm-base.cabal?
