Many library doc links with ".Base." in the path are broken, e.g. the IArray links on

that point to the nonexisting
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries/base/Data.Array.Ba se.html Thanks. Data.Array.Base is a "hidden" module - we don't expose its documentation, but unfortunately Haddock sometimes still generates links to it, when it can't find anywhere better to link to. This is a bug, but unfortunately it's a pretty deep bug - Haddock would need to be able to link to modules outside the imported scope of the current module, which it currently can't do. Fortunately there's often a workaround in the form of rearranging the imports of a module to expose the correct linking destinations to Haddock. I'll do a sweep over the docs before we release GHC 6.4 and make sure we don't have any dangling links of this kind. Cheers, Simon
