Almost every release of GHC that I can remember has had the links for the "mtl" package broken. (The Control.Monad.XXX modules are mostly from mtl. But, for example, Control.Monad.Fix is from base. I bet you'll find it works just fine.)
Well spotted, Andrew!
The way to get things like this fixed is to report a bug to the relevant project.
M'kay. And for this, that would be...?
Click on the 'bug report' button:
Ah, right. There's a HP-specific tracker. I guess now I just have to go register my details with yet *another* tracker and then I can report it. (Right after I finish checking that nobody has already reported it for me...)
You installed the Haskell Platform on Windows, so please mention this in the bug ticket. The problem will likely be in the Windows installer script, and what docs were bundled with that specific installer.
Be as detailed in the report as you can, to make sure we can reproduce what trouble you have.
The information above probably says it all, so that shouldn't be hard.
In the meantime, you can always read the 'mtl' documentation on its package page:
Well, yeah, there is that. It's just annoying to click on certain links and find it's dead, even if there is a workaround. (Assuming you have Internet access, which you occasionally don't...)
