I was noticing recently that there seems to be a problem with Hoogle and Haddock. In particular, I just hoogled "bracket" and got the following result: bracket :: IO a -> a -> IO b -> a -> IO c -> IO c Clearly this is the wrong type, as it should be bracket :: IO a -> (a -> IO b) -> (a -> IO c) -> IO c
Is this a bug? Is is something that's well-known?
Yes, it's a known bug: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/2584
I can make a work around for Hoogle (well, I can write a workaround in the Hoogle specific code of Haddock), but was hoping that the bug would be fixed before 6.10. I guess its now worth making the Hoogle specific fix.
