Hi,

How does confirm that this bug is being hit. `stack haddock
haskell-src-exts` on LTS-12.1 fails with the following cryptic error:

    --  While building custom Setup.hs for package haskell-src-exts-1.20.2
using:

/home/vl/.stack/setup-exe-cache/x86_64-linux/Cabal-simple_mPHDZzAJ_2.2.0.1_ghc-8.4.3
--builddir=.stack-work/dist/x86_64-linux/Cabal-2.2.0.1 haddock --html
--hoogle --html-location=../$pkg-$version/
--haddock-option=--hyperlinked-source
    Process exited with code: ExitFailure (-11)
    Logs have been written to:
/home/vl/vacationlabs/haskell/.stack-work/logs/haskell-src-exts-1.20.2.log

The log file doesn't contain an error.

How does one upgrade the haddock version and get stack to use it?
