  The Haskell libpq (client-side PostgreSQL programming library) binding is
now available to download, along with a simple DBI for Haskell, similar to
this in Perl, allowing a programmer to write a database-independent 
code. 
  It can be found at http://www.astercity.net/~khaliff/haskell/dbi/dbi.tgz. To
compile, KDirect (http://www.astercity.net/~khaliff/kdirect) and the latest
version of QForeign (http://sourceforge.net/projects/qforeign) is needed. It
should compile both under ghc and nhc, yet only ghc was tested. It is no
end-user product, though - there is no "install" rule in Makefile and
Makefile editing is necessary, I'm afraid. 
  If someone finds it useful or has any suggestions, I would love to hear
them.
