But surely any device driver is parametrized on the exact IO addresses? How would you be able to handle multiple devices otherwise?

Well, It can be written in Haskell as it stands at the moment...
No it can't. If I have a device driver that's accessing real hardware (peeking and poking specific memory locations say), how are you going to emulate that? You need to make peek and poke parameters of the module.
That is certainly possible, but if the author of the driver module didn't anticipate your emulation needs, you'd be stuck I think.
