 The comment for `reallyUnsafePtrEquality#` visible on
 [https://hackage.haskell.org/package/ghc-prim-0.5.1.1/docs/GHC-
 Prim.html#v:reallyUnsafePtrEquality-35- hackage] gives the impression that
 the function returns `1#` when the two points are not equal.

 Looking [https://hackage.haskell.org/package/ghc-
 prim-0.5.1.1/docs/src/GHC.Prim.html#reallyUnsafePtrEquality%23 at the
 source code], the intended comment is the complete opposite.

 It seems that haddock ate everything between hashes.
