Homebrew only makes available GHC and the Platform:

http://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/blob/master/Library/Formula/ghc.rb
http://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/blob/master/Library/Formula/haskell-platform.rb

AFAIK Homebrew's policy is to not provide packages for things that can
be installed via language-specific package management tools.
Consequently, they don't provide packages for Ruby gems (use gem
instead), Python eggs (use easy_install) and Haskell packages (use
cabal).

Cheers,
