This is how I finally solved this problem for POSIX complaint system:

--
-- TestRun
--
module Main where
import System.Cmd (rawSystem)
import System.Directory (getCurrentDirectory)
import System.Environment.Executable (ScriptPath(..), getScriptPath)
import System.FilePath.Posix (splitFileName)

main = do

  path <- getMyPath
  putStrLn $ "myPath = " ++ path
  let cmdLine = path ++ "args.sh"
  rawSystem cmdLine  ["iphone", "test-twitts.txt"]

{--
data ScriptPath Source

Constructors:
Executable FilePath    it was (probably) a proper compiled executable
RunGHC FilePath        it was a script run by runghc/runhaskell
Interactive                     we are in GHCi
--}

getMyPath = do
  curDir <- getCurrentDirectory -- from System.Directory
  scriptPath  <- getScriptPath -- from System.Environment.Executable
  let path = getMyPath' scriptPath curDir
  return path

getMyPath' (Executable path) _ = fst (splitFileName path)
getMyPath' (RunGHC path) _  = fst (splitFileName path)
getMyPath' Interactive curDir = curDir++"/"

All the best,
