You can get pretty close with existing Haskell though: (bin 100010011) where bin :: Integer -> Integer, and is left as an exercise for the reader. Obviously its not as high performance, as proper binary literals, but if you write them as top-level constants, they'll only be computed once and shouldn't end up being in the performance critical bits.
