I thought that areas were such a lovely, well-behaved abstraction. I was
thrilled when we came up with them, and I'm very sorry to see them go.
There are no many things that I no longer understand. I now have no i
There are no one-slot areas any more, I ditched those when I rewrote the
stack allocator. There is only ever one live area: either the old area

Hi all,
I have now merged in the new parser and new features onto a single
branch. I'm having some issues validating with HEAD at the moment
(#8661, unrelated problem) but while I get that sorted out, someone
might want to try validating with Haddock changes on their own platform.
