#8945: GHC produces grouped declarations in a weird order -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: Fuuzetsu | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: GHC API | Version: 7.9 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by simonpj): Spot on. GHC's front end makes no particular effort to maintain the original declarations in the order they were given. While it was just a front end for the compiler that was fine, but now it's being used for Haddock and other back ends I can see that being more careful about this would be good. I'd be happy to accept a patch. (It's not hard, as you observe.) There may be other places in the parser where this kind of things happens, I'm not sure.
