------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
 The haddock library currently does not expose functionality for
 converting strings of Haddock markup to HTML.

 This functionality is needed by Hackage, for example, to render
 package description text. Hackage duplicates the haddock parsing and
 lexing code rather than using it directly:

 http://code.haskell.org/hackage-server/Distribution/Server/Pages/Package/

 We should add functions to the Haddock API for parsing the markup.
