[arch-haskell] Building the Haskell ABS tree

[gdweber at iue.edu]

I thought I'd give cblrepo a try, and followed the instructions from
https://github.com/archhaskell/habs#readme

--but got a bunch of error messages:

Ha!  At first I thought it was completely failing, but now I see it looks
like it failed with only 14 packages and built around 140 others.

Should this prevent me from going further and adding other packages
that I want to build that are not in the [haskell] repo?

Do I need to make the PKGBUILD files (and their directories) for all of
the packages in the repo before adding my own?

Do I need to actually _build_ the packages that are not my own
(in the sense of making the Arch Linux packages that pacman can use,
with makeahpkg)?  I certainly hope not!
