Documentation errors in Control.Exception.Base

I found the following 2 errors in the documentation of Control.Exception.Base

catch

From the documentation for the catch function:

... see the previous section "Catching all exceptions"

There is no such section!

mask

From the documentation for the mask function:

... the only way is to create a new thread; see Control.Concurrent.forkIOUnmasked.

But forkIOUnmasked is deprecated!
