The commit ed9ccc0 changed the behavior
of the precompiled cache to store relative instead of absolute paths.
That seems to have broken the ability to properly check if a library
exists, thereby defeating precompiled caching.
The issue that discovered this is #3431, and ascribed this to extensible
snapshots. I think, though I'm not 100% certain, that this bug reaches
much farther than extensible snapshots, and in fact breaks all
precompiled caches.
Note: Documentation fixes for https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/ should target the "stable" branch, not master.
