I was working towards this myself.

This is something that would probably be useful in my day job.

I have a package basically ready for Unixutils (it builds but needs some
minor tweaking). I've also started on the Extra and Debian packages but
they don't currently build due to problems with broken dependancies.
As you noted network needs a rebuild once parsec is sorted out. The
current HaXml debian source doesn't currently build due to haddock
issues:
haddock: unrecognized option `--use-package=base'
unrecognized option `--use-package=haskell98'
