Hi Nicholas,

The haskell-src package needs to be patched to work with GHC 7.2.

If using GHC 7.0 is an option, it should work with that.

A similar package which does work with GHC 7.2 is haskell-src-exts:

http://hackage.haskell.org/package/haskell-src-exts

It has support for many haskell language extensions, so the AST types
are a bit more complex.
