Thank you. As it turns out, I was aware of that recipe. What I wanted was to be able to use cabal install's nice dependency following features and still get source links in my documentation.
Due to popular demand we quickly added the --enable-documentation flag but did not manage to agree a design for exposing the other haddock/documentation flags via cabal install. We'd appreciate if you could add your suggestions for the design of the command line interface to this ticket: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/206
Personally, I feel that inclusion of source and docs should be the DEFAULT for cabal, as well as for binary distributions of ghc.
You can set it as a default in the ~/.cabal/config file. Duncan
