I think it's safest to always add new stuff the the end of these
commands. Of course, that might mean the wrong stuff runs in some weird
packages, but that's very unlikely and in such a package, one guess is
probably as good as another -- as long as the guess is the same going
forward.

The existing haskell-devscripts stuff might be a good source for a first
cut at getting it right. I am not sure though if debhelper itself can
afford to encode quite as much haskell-specific knowledge as those
commands do. At least, not until I use haskell a lot more. ;-)
