Description

`dist/setup-config` has the following header:

```
Saved package config for issue1244-1.0 written by Cabal-1.17.0 using ghc-7.4
```

This information is used for checking whether we should reconfigure. Now that we support cross-compilation, we should probably also save `$arch` and `$os` there.
