New description:
Since the move to ReStructuredText and Sphinx we've generated the options
summary tables and manpage with `utils/mkUserGuidePart`. The options are
described in a set of Haskell modules which are a pain to edit and may
easily fall out of date.
It would be far better if we could generate these tables from the `.. ghc-
flag` directives already present in the users guide. This will involve a
bit of hacking with Sphinx, although it should be more than up to the
task.
