Comment (by niteria):

 I took a look and it looks like `haddock`'s `ppClassDecl` gets:
 {{{
        Enum MinimalSig
             ClassOpSig [succ]
             ClassOpSig [pred]
             ClassOpSig [toEnum]
             ClassOpSig [fromEnum]
             ClassOpSig [enumFrom]
             ClassOpSig [enumFromThen]
             ClassOpSig [enumFromTo]
             ClassOpSig [enumFromThenTo]
 }}}
 for `Enum`, but
 {{{
        Eq MinimalSig
           TypeSig [==]
           TypeSig [/=]
 }}}

 for `Eq`.

 So we either want to:
 1. handle `TypeSig` in `haddock`, or
 2. always return `ClassOpSig` for typeclass methods

 I believe 2. is preferable.
