 Haddock fails to cooperate with OS X clang CPP:
 {{{
 <no location info>:
     module ‘pkgid-pkgversion:Main’ is defined in multiple files:
 dist/build/tmp-#####/Stuff
 }}}

 A workaround is to pass `--ghc-options=-optP-P` to `cabal haddock`.

 This prevents `cabal-install` from being boostrapped, unless `--no-doc` is
 specified.

 The original Haddock ticket and the corresponding Cabal issue were both
 closed as invalid, but there appears to be no GHC ticket to track the
 underlying cause.
