haddock arguments

[Carter Schonwald]

I think you can probably set the flags for the it much more nicely via
http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/Cabal/1.16.0.3/doc/html/Distribution-Simple-Program.htmland
the haddockProgram record.

heres an example Setup.hs that does something very, similar, in this case
making sure that "-pgmc clang" is passed to ghc always.

that should help!

The difference is you'll probably want this manipulation to be using the
haddockHook field in
http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/Cabal/1.16.0.3/doc/html/Distribution-Simple.htmlinstead
of the buildHook field.

I hope that helps! :)
(while you're at it, adding the -pgmc clang thing from my example setup.hs
would probably prevent the funny build errors I was hitting, :) )
