In case anyone wonders, I stumbled along the same road as Henk. 
I modified my Setup.hs inside the downloaded wxcore tar/zip file to this:

    putStrLn "Generating class type definitions from .h files"
    system $ "wxdirect -t --wxc " ++ "\"" ++ wxcDirectory ++ "\"" ++ " -o " ++ 
"\"" ++ wxcoreDirectory ++ "\"" ++ " " ++ "\"" ++ wxcoreIncludeFile ++ "\""
    putStrLn "Generating class info definitions"
    system $ "wxdirect -i --wxc " ++ "\"" ++ wxcDirectory ++ "\"" ++ " -o " ++ 
"\"" ++ wxcoreDirectory ++ "\"" ++ " " ++ "\"" ++ wxcoreIncludeFile ++ "\""
    putStrLn "Generating class method definitions from .h files"
    system $ "wxdirect -c --wxc " ++ "\"" ++ wxcDirectory ++ "\"" ++ " -o " ++ 
"\"" ++ wxcoreDirectory ++ "\"" ++ " " ++ "\"" ++ wxcoreIncludeFile ++ "\""

I'm a total Haskell noob, so I couldn't figure out how to append the " marks to 
the variable without causing further problems (as what Henk attempted). 

hope this helps anyone out there :)
