We're waiting for a release of haddock 0.9 in the mean time you could
patch it:

# Cabal 1.2 expects the pre-processed sources in a different location:
mkdir -p dist/build/haddock/haddock-tmp
cp src/HaddockLex.hs src/HaddockParse.hs src/HsParser.hs dist/build/haddock/haddock-tmp/

# Add in the extra split-base deps
sed -i -e '/build-depends:/a \
  ,array, containers, directory, pretty, process' haddock.cabal
