Thanks for looking at it again.


I tried passing -O* to ghc through haddock but it doesn't seem to do 
anything.

So I figured i'd try replacing the imports at the top of files with 
something like:

import Graphics.Rendering.OGL.Monad hiding (GL)
import Control.Monad
import Control.Monad.Trans

newtype GL a = GL (IO a) deriving (Functor, Monad, MonadIO)


Which fixes the error, but GL and Graphics.Rendering.OGL.Monad.GL aren't 
treated as equivalent.


I just generated the documentation with an older version and linked it 
on the package's wiki page so its not a big deal either way.


I'm pretty sure its GHC's fault not haddock.
