Comment (by chak):
I actually still don't even see the point of requiring !HsColour by
default. As Norman writes, !HsColour should be detected by ./configure
like everything else. If it's not installed, ./configure should print a
warning about Haddock code not being nicely marked up and the build
continue. What's so special about !HsColour, say compared to the docbook
tools, that it deserves different treatment?
If it is really '''that''' important, it's source should be included into
the GHC repo, just like gmp.
