I changed this so it's:

./Setup configure
./Setup haddock --hyperlink-source

or if you want to specify your own hscolour.css then it's:

./Setup haddock --hyperlink-source --hscolour-css=...

While I was at it I also added:
./Setup haddock --css=...
for haddock's css file.

I think hscolour should have a way to find or specify its own default
hscolour.css since at the moment we don't actually get any colouring.
We'd like by default to use hscolour's default hscolour.css.

I've made a couple changes so it works with the current release of
haddock-0.8. In particular I've made it use the %{MODULE/./-} variable
rather than the %{FILE///-} one that's only supported by the darcs
version of haddock.

What was that link-breaking-bug fix? Was that a fix for haddock or for
Cabal?
