This issue is part of why Haskell is so hard to learn. Haskell's package database Hackage keeps all old deprecated incompatible versions of packages, with documentation pages all well indexed by Google, with higher page rank because they are longer lived than the current package version, with no indication that they are deprecated and incompatible with current Haskell deployments.

    "Stack" is the name of a product; it wasn't a generic reference to "the Haskell stack".

It really shouldn't be beyond the wits of the hackage developers to include a normative URL in old docs...
