$ ghc-pkg check
There are problems in package haddock-2.4.2:
   import-dirs: 
c:/builds/slave/x86-win-stable/build/ghc-6.10.2\haddock-2.4.2 doesn't exist 
or isn't a directory
   library-dirs: 
c:/builds/slave/x86-win-stable/build/ghc-6.10.2\haddock-2.4.2 doesn't exist 
or isn't a directory
   file Distribution\Haddock.hi is missing
   file Haddock\DocName.hi is missing
   file Haddock\Types.hi is missing
   file Haddock\InterfaceFile.hi is missing
   file Haddock\Exception.hi is missing
   file Haddock\Utils.hi is missing
   file Haddock\GHC\Utils.hi is missing
   cannot find libHShaddock-2.4.2.a on library path

The following packages are broken, either because they have a problem
listed above, or because they depend on a broken package.
haddock-2.4.2


It's not a serious problem since I don't think the Haddock package is used 
by anything (is it?).  But we ought to have a clean ghc-pkg check nevertheless.
