Haddock, .lhs, and GHC

That's what I do. My normal install procedure is:
  ghc --make setup
  setup configure
  setup build
  setup install

If only takes a couple of seconds for ghc to compile setup, and then
it runs instantly. If I was to use runghc then it would recompile (in
ghci) for each invocation.

I use #! in Setup.hs (non-lit) and it compiles fine, so no worries there either.
