Comment:

 I figured out what haddock was choking on: I needed a new line with a dot
 in the package description before a code block:

 {{{
     Changes 0.0.4 -> 0.1.0:
     .
     >  - use fclabels 1.0
     >  - zipper operations in Maybe by default
 }}}

 Naturally it would be nice if haddock could report a useful message in
 this case. Even knowing that the issue was in the .cabal file would have
 been a tremendous help.
