Spencer Janssen also wrote a rather elegant translation, which you can
find on hpaste.org

    import Data.List
    import Data.Ord

    n = 3 :: Int

    invalid (i, j) (i', j') = i == i' || j == j' ||
                              i `div` n == i' `div` n && j `div` n == j' `div` n

    select p n p' ns | invalid p p' = filter (/= n) ns
                     | otherwise    = ns
      
    add p n sols = sortBy (comparing (length . snd)) $ map f sols
      where f (p', ns) = (p', select p n p' ns)

    search []             = [[]]
    search ((p, ns):sols) = [(p, n):ss | n <- ns, ss <- search $ add p n sols]
