could not find link destination for data family

[guibou]

The following code:

{-# LANGUAGE TypeFamilies #-}
module NewTypeExport where

class Foo t where
  data Bar t

data Biz

instance Foo Biz where
  data Bar Biz = Bar Biz

Generates the following warning:

Warning: NewTypeExport: could not find link destinations for:
    Type D:R:BarBiz0 Bar

When actually Bar Biz is visible, hence I don't understand the warning. That's similar to #1070, however I don't have any easy workaround for that one.

Haddock doesn't do a great job in general with data families and data instances. Some thoughts:

• Type is something added by Haddock (since all instances are reified from GHC internals) so we should always be able to link to it (perhaps it needs to be manually added to the renaming environment).
• D:R:BarBiz0 is a mess to look at. I don't think we ever provide anchors to derived names... Perhaps the warning should start by filtering out names which satisfy isDerivedOccName?
• Bar really should have a link destination. One day, when Better data family rendering #897 gets merged, there will be a reasonable place to place such anchors.

My mistake for Type, I had not the -i ...../base.haddock list of flags.

@guibou is this still reproducible?
