It means exactly that - something in that file's comments is causing
Haddock to choke. It could be using '*' inside some --s, it could be
something else. Haddock won't really say. Your best bet is the old
bisect/binary-search method: remove half the comments & retry,
narrowing it down until you've found the offending line and then
character. Then you can either remove it or read the Haddock manual
and see what the right thing looks like.
