Tables are manually sized in `flags.rst`, but even still it's not perfect. LaTeX can't break flags like `-XGeneralizedNewtypeDeriving`, which means that the sum of the minimum column widths is larger than the width of the line. I believe there aren't any egregious overlaps remaining, but some flags do spill out of their cells. Column widths are set in a percentage format that looks like `|\Y{20}|\Y{40}|\Y{10}|\Y{30}|`, which is reasonably amenable to change. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12155#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
