Would it be possible to get better reporting of errors that prevent Haddock docs from being built? Some packages without docs list a build log, but many others don't.

In the medium term, expecting the hackage server to be able to build each package is unrealistic. It will never have all the system libs and eventually will probably not have the cpu time to even build them all. The solution is to have separate building and have hackage just report the results.
That makes sense; but if the packages aren't built on the server, will we still be able to display the Haddock docs? Maybe there should be some way for the person uploading a package to also upload its Haddock files? Thanks, -Judah
