I implemented it and did some tests. I did not test aborting it halfway,
but I’m confident that it is ok – the moving of files can be continued.
Only an abortion between rmdir and ln would be bad.

The postinst is here:
http://anonscm.debian.org/darcs/pkg-haskell/ghc/ghc-doc.postinst.in

Unless you see major problems there, I’ll upload it tomorrow.

@DHG: There is no hurry in getting ghc-7.0.4 in. Therefore, I suggest we
do this change with 7.0.3, upload to unstable, and wait until this fix
is in testing.

Greetings,
Joachim
