AFAICT, --constraint (and constraints given in ./cabal.config) are only taken into account for cabal install. For me It would be useful if they would also be taken into account during development.

Say if I have

constraints:foo==0.2.1

in cabal.config, but foo-0.2.2 is installed, I'd like cabal build to fail.

This seems to be a bug in configure: cabal configure --constraint="foo==1.0.1" succeeds even if only foo-1.0.0 is installed.

Related: #1485.
