-            The <literal>Cabal</literal> release shipped with this GHC release lacks
-            support for response files, a mechanism used on Windows to workaround the
-            low command-line length limit on that platform. For this reason you
-            may experience line length issues when building Haddock documentation with Cabal
-            on Windows.
