Somewhat related: Using Hoogle with +ghc will give results which link
into the ghc haddock docs.

For instance: http://www.haskell.org/hoogle/?hoogle=%2Bghc+getOccName

The link for 'getOccName' points to:

http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries/ghc/Name.html#v:getOccName

which gives a 404. But this link (adding the version number 7.8.2 in) does:

http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries/ghc-7.8.2/Name.html#v:getOccName

I'm not sure if this is Hoogle's fault or something someone on
ghc-devs can fix, but can you symlink (or otherwise redirect) the
'ghc' to 'ghc-7.8.2'?
