I've just found out that cabal ("distutils for haskell") supports most
of those options, BTW:
http://www.haskell.org/cabal/release/latest/doc/users-guide/builders.html#setup-configure-paths
And haskell is not really a C-language-focused language :) I don't know
anything about haskell, but it may be interesting to look at how they
are doing things,
