If I add the new-style attributes to the base package, it hides

modules in the documentation for base, but packages that depend

seem to generate links to locations in those hidden modules, e.g.

I've now fixed this issue - a patch is available in the darcs
repository.
OK, that seems to be fine now.
If you build the libraries in ghc-6.8.2 (with the added OPTIONS_HADDOCK
pragmas) with haddock-2.1, Data-Array.html is almost empty.  The
old Haddock had problems with re-exports from another package:
* re-exported functions/types/classes were just shown as hyperlinked
  names without docs (the docs aren't stored in the interface file)
* re-exported modules weren't shown at all (no reason that I can think
of).
However the new haddock doesn't even show the re-exported names.
Oh, interesting. We should be able show the docs for re-exports, since
the new Haddock do store them in the interface files.

Thanks for the report,
David
