I wasn't aware of a huge number of haxml-using Debian packages. Neither
it seem as apt-cache:

    sid > apt-cache rdepends haxml
    haxml
    Reverse Depends:
      libhugs-haxml
      libghc6-haxml-dev

    sid > apt-cache rdepends libghc6-haxml-dev
    libghc6-haxml-dev
    Reverse Depends:
     |haxml

On Debian Lenny I get:

    lenny > apt-cache rdepends haxml
    haxml
    Reverse Depends:
      libhugs-haxml
      libghc6-haxml-dev
    
    lenny > apt-cache rdepends libghc6-haxml-dev
    libghc6-haxml-dev
    Reverse Depends:
      libghc6-happs-state-dev
      libghc6-happs-state-dev
      libghc6-happs-server-dev
      libghc6-happs-server-dev
      libghc6-happs-data-dev
      libghc6-happs-data-dev
     |haxml

To me that looks like one package which seems to be unmaintained (hugs)
and happs.
