    Add $ as a special character
    
    If this character is not escaped, documentation built with Haddock
    2.17.2 will fail.  This was not an issue with 2.16 series, which
    causes builds to fail and there is nothing in the docs or error
    message giving a clue about why builds that used to succeed now
    don't.
