When you open a comment inside <hask> tags without closing it, the parser breaks. Observe:

I broke it!

Here's some nicely-formatted code:

id :: a -> a
id x = const x x
 
const :: a -> b -> a
const x _ = id x

which is now ruined. Interestingly this text is fine.

Perhaps it's only paragraphs with

any

code that are broken. Closing comments on their own inside comments seem to have no effect:

-}

this is not fixed

The problem

doesn't even stop at section boundaries:

error :: String -> a
error str = error (error str)
