[arch-haskell] Issues with cabal2arch/AUR packages

Well basically the point would be that libraries would be installed through
cabal install however haskell binaries you would install through AUR, and
the PKGBUILD would (indirectly through some shell script) check for
dependencies, and if a library isn't installed it would temporarily install
it in /tmp where the PKGBUILD would link it with ghc to build the binary.

Obviously as mentioned earlier, it's not really an isssue now, but when more
widely used haskell binaries are on AUR, if people installed packages
thorough cabal and not AUR, something along these lines will need to be done
