Bump the base dependency so we can build with GHC 8.4 - depends on the relevant code changes submitted in other patches. There are also some changes needed to support newer Cabal versions that may or may not come along with GHC 8.4, but I'm getting very confused about compatibility of those changes, so not submitting them yet.
