[Haskell] Compiling wxHaskell from source?

[Iavor Diatchki]

Hello,
I also couldn't compile it.  I looked in the sources a bit, and at
least one of the problems was that that the wxHaskell wrappers used
'char' insted of 'wxChar', which I think causes problems if wxWidgets
is compiled with unicode support (as is probably the case with the
Debian library).  It appears that the soultion posted on the board
also required wxWidgets without unicode support.  These are just
guesses though.
