Probably so because the current ghc library documentation is generated
with Haddock 0.7 (which is the current cvs version of Haddock). We're
hoping it will be released officially in the not to distant future
(though if you like you can use the cvs version now as it's perfectly
usable).

The .haddock files are in a binary format and so are almost certainly
not compatible between versions (like ghc .hi files).

It would be nice if haddock gave some sort of error message in this case
rather than ignoring the file.
