Comment (by guest):

 At least I think I got the problem: preprocessSources will put the
 preprocessed source in dist/build in case of a library, and in
 dist/build/exeName/exeName-tmp/ in case of an executable.

 But Haddock.haddock will always search dist/build. Hence the call of 'die'
 in getModulePaths.

 Cheers,
 ar

 ps: I must confess I don't get the reason for this difference so my
 instinct would be to change preprocessSources (this is why I'm not
 attaching any patch).
