Re: [Haskell-cafe] Broken ghc documentation links

So, the problem is that there are broken links _in Hoogle_;

No, hoogle just sends you to http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.12.2/html/libraries/base-4.2.0.1/Prelude.h... , which does exist. It's the 'Source' link in the haddocks that sends you to the 404 Not Found. It's the same with my local docs, I think it's haddock that got confused by the move of the IO definition from base to ghc-prim.

have you thought about contacting the author Neil Mitchell directly?

To reproduce:

1) Look for "data IO" on Hoogle, e.g. http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.12.1/html/libraries/base-4.2.0.0/Prelude .html#t%3AIO

2) Click "source", which redirects to http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.12.1/html/libraries/base-4.2.0.0/src/GHC -Types.html#IO

3) Observe a "Not Found" page

Is there anyone interested in fixing this?
