I'm not sure about the bit of the patch below. David,
Control/Exception.hs contains:

    -- ** Catching all exceptions

    -- $catchall

    [...]

    {- $catchall

    It is possible to catch all exceptions, by using the type 'SomeException':

but the reference to $catchall in Control/Exception/Base.hs isn't
working; in Control-Exception.html $catchall isn't expanded. Is that a
bug, or expected behaviour?
