That doesn't seem like the right approach to me. We should not need to
pass in extra stuff to cabal haddock. It should just work. Cabal already
knows that it's using haddock-2.0 and adjusts the commands line args it
uses. We just need to adjust them so they're right and do similarly in
the makefile that Cabal generates. I think they're already right in the
normal way Cabal calls haddock, they just need to be done the same in
the makefile way.
