 Fix (untested) building from source tarball without alex/happy

 haddock's .cabal file was declaring that it needed alex and happy to
 build, but in the GHC source tarballs it doesn't.

Comment(by kosmikus):

 It actually seems to require both alex and happy. The build succeeded once
 I added both packages to the build inputs.

Comment:

 Alex should not be required for building from source, this is indeed a
 bug.  I'm not sure what could have changed though.
