I don't believe that Haddock will download from a URL.

Try downlading the base.haddock file first:
$ haddock Codec/Utils.hs --read-interface=base.haddock

In this case it would be better if Haddock gave you an error about there
being no such (local) file as "http://www.haskell.org/g...", rather than
ignoring it. I'd call this a user interface bug.
