Make haskell bindings 'easily' compilable
-----------------------------------------

                 Key: THRIFT-914
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-914
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Haskell - Compiler, Haskell - Library
    Affects Versions: 0.5
         Environment: GHC 6.12.3, Mac OS X 10.6, Haskell Platform 2010.2.0.0

Darwin -- 10.4.0 Darwin Kernel Version 10.4.0: Fri Apr 23 18:28:53 PDT 2010; 
root:xnu-1504.7.4~1/RELEASE_I386 i386
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 6.12.3
            Reporter: Christian Lavoie
             Fix For: 0.5


Current Setup.lhs file has weird commenting that barfs on my machine (Haskell 
does not use # as a comment marker). Also, after much recent mungling from me 
the .cabal file is out of date.

This patch fixes both issues, making it easy to test the haskell bindings 
compilability state:

{noquote}
cabal update
cabal install network binary http
cd $THRIFT/lib/hs/src
runhaskell Setup.lhs configure --user # --user is optional, but you'll need 
root-like powers without it
runhaskell Setup.lhs build
runhaskell Setup.lhs install # optional, really
{noquote}

Also, with the recent commit of the improved type bindings, it's worth bumping 
the thrift cabal package's version number -- that change was major API breakage.

(Please note this does NOT integrate with autotools in any useful way, but is a 
prerequisite for THRIFT-905 to be useful)
