Comment:

 So I'm rather perplexed. I checked the rc2 binary distributions and found
 that the `i386-deb8-linux`, `x86_64-deb8-linux`, `x86_64-unknown-mingw32`,
 and `x86_64-apple-darwin` distributions all contain a `ghc.1` manpage. I
 also verified that `ghc.1` was installed to `$prefix/share/man/man1` as
 expected. Finally, I checked the rc1 `x86_64-deb8-linux` tarball and
 confirmed that it too has a `ghc.1`. What am I missing here?
