Yes, I understand what these modules do, I was just surprised that the
documentation for both modules was empty. I expected to see the same interface
as System.FilePath. Why the #ifdef __HADDOCK__ in System/FilePath/Posix.hs?
Also, rather than having 3 copies of System.FilePath, we should have at most 2
(this is just an implementation issue, of course).
