OK, I have commited the bulk of my changes.

Sounds cool ... my haskell is extremely limited, so I don't

Hmmm, first hit at http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/~meurig/TclHaskell/
and it certainly seems to be old.  It appears that they did
make a version for 8.3 at some point.  I suspect they never
did one that properly used Tcl stubs though, otherwise you
would not need to recompile for newer Tcl releases anyways.

OK, let us know about progress, and if there is something
about the build system that can be made to make this easier.
