Comment (by simonmar):
I'm trying to reproduce the original error, and I need some help.
I compiled up Haddock 2 from `code.haskell.org`, and tried to run it on a
copy of the base library in a GHC build tree. I tried unsuccessfully to
use `setup/Setup haddock`: it still seemed to want to preprocess all the
source files:
{{{
$ ./setup/Setup haddock -v
Creating dist/build/tmp (and its parents)
Creating dist/doc/html/base (and its parents)
Preprocessing library base-3.0...
Running Haddock for base-3.0...
../../utils/ghc-pkg/ghc-pkg-inplace field rts-1.0 haddock-interfaces
../../utils/ghc-pkg/ghc-pkg-inplace field rts-1.0 haddock-html
Warning: The documentation for package rts-1.0 is not installed. No links
to it will be generated.

}}}
it's definitely running the right Haddock (verison 2.0).
Anyway, I tried running Haddock directly:
{{{
$ haddock -B/home/simonmar/fp/lib/x86_64-unknown-linux/ghc-6.8.1 -optghc
=-fglasgow-exts -optghc=-cpp Prelude.hs
Prelude.hs:38:1: lexical error at character 'i'
}}}
The `-optghc` flags don't seem to be getting through to GHC. What's
happening here?
