They are most certainly architecture dependent, and must be set to
architecture any.  All the packages in our repository have this change, and
the cabal-debian tool generates a debianization with that architecture.
Putting them in the dev package seems a bit unfortunate.  What I am not sure
about is whether they are compiler dependent -- if they are I guess the
package name should be libghc6-foo-doc rather than haskell-foo-doc.
