Well, Haskell is a general purpose language, so it should be able to do
pretty much anything.
Here's a graphical representation of what Haskell is used for, based on
the number of packages on Hackage in that category:

Most endeavors in computer programming are available in some form or
another on Hackage, so I'd say we have lived up to the goal of providing
a general purpose language.
One thing that is not well covered, due to the nature of the runtime, is
hard real time computing.
