it's a good case for making useful library and put it to hackage ;)

you may wonder, but there is no paid army of haskellers which wrote
all the libs you required. everything you've seen are written by
enthusiasts just because they need it for their work

while working on my own program, i've made bindings to aes, twofish,
sha512, pkcs5, fortune and lot of other C libs

 Out of curiosity, what's hackage, and how do you put stuff on it?

google for haskell hackage. i never uploaded anything to it, but
site should contain instructions

 I don't know C, so I can't really write bindings. (I also don't have a C
 compiler for that matter... Presumably I'd have to move to Linux for that.)

i don't think that C knowledge is really reqd, but you should
understand cpu memory model. there is also ffi packaging tool which
should generate bindings automatically. C and C++ compilers are
shipped as part of GHC/win32 distribution
