Comment (by duncan):

 I thought we wanted to avoid using -DHADDOCK precisely because haddock-2.0
 can parse everything that ghc can, and so people should not need cpp
 hacks. Even if we use -DHADDOCK=2 we'll end up seeing the old workaround
 code that people show to haddock-0.x.

 We should be passing the cpp-options of course.

 IMHO, we should still make Cabal do the pre-processing rather than have
 ghc do it, but that's part of a larger task.
