 As you know, the .haddock files generated by haddock-0.8 are incompatible
 with haddock-2.X

 However, GHC's site only seems to offer a 0.8-friendly documentation
 package.

 I think GHC should systematically offer an alternative haddock-2
 documentation package or, even better, provide documentation compatible
 with both versions (this would probably require changes in haddock).

 It would maybe be agood idea to offer
 http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/libraries.html-haddock2.tar.gz
 apart from http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/libraries.html.tar.gz or
 simply move on to haddock 2.

 Since most of my code relies on GHC syntax extensions and I didn't want to
 lose the ability to get links in my documentation, I created a haddock-2
 version of the library documentation myself:

 http://code.haskell.org/~fons/libraries.html-haddock2.tgz

 Should I add the link to http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/GHC or wait until
 a cleaner solution is found?
