As always, my apologies.

When you say change is on the 7.10 branch, you mean a fix for Haddock, or changes to Cabal? There are also other issues with the --hoogle output, the newest regression being that constructors are wrapped in square brackets, for example: [Nothing] :: Maybe a Generally, the --hoogle output from Haddock keeps going downhill.
