I guess a Haskell app is a lot simpler than a Haskell library to
package, but here's the debhelper 7.2 way for Darcs.

When dh_auto_* know about Setup.lhs in the same way they currently know
about setup.py an Makefile.PL, all the override_* targets will
disappear.  There's a patch in http://bugs.debian.org/499225.

    #!/usr/bin/make -f
    # Work around #481592 (Closes: #485631).  Remove when #481592 closes!
    CFLAGS := $(filter-out -g,$(CFLAGS))

            dh $@
