Unfortunately this isn't possible. Haddock can produce documentation
with hyperlinks to entities in another package, but it cannot include
full documentation for entities which are re-expored from a different
package. This would require essentially keeping a copy of the entire
documentation for the package in the interface file.

A GHC distribution comes with Haddock interfaces for all the packages
that it ships with.
