New description:
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 pointers 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.
