It might be easiest to support Docbook output in Haddock and
to generate all other formats from that -- including "man"
a.k.a. nroff. Adapting the HTML output for SGML or XML is
probably less of an effort than writing a new driver from
the scratch.

In any case, I too would appreciate generated man files for
Haskell modules.
