Hi Lars. Sorry for such a late reply.

> I'll have to add the vim helptext generation as a backend to haddock. The InstalledInterfaces do not contain enough info to generate a meaningful output: instDocMap holds almost no documentation. In Documentation.Haddock, only createInterfacess has non-empty documentation.

instDocMap should hold all doc strings for the module. If that's not
what you're seeing there must be a problem somewhere.

No major merge problems. Right now the ghc-7.4 branch is the best
starting point, but something earlier is probably OK for your type of
changes.
