I've finally applied the Haddock patches (except the version bump).
I've also pushed a few corrections of minor issues (mostly stylistic
ones, so far) and will continue to do that as I look closer at the
code. But I think it's ready to go into GHC now.

Isaac, one question: you do DeleteTopLevelQuantification on methods,
which deletes their contexts. Won't that be problematic when a method
has a context which is not also on the class?
