Am I missing something that makes this problem harder than other systems and languages? Is anyone currently working on the packaging  and distribution issues? If not, does anyone else want to work on it?

The other dirty little secret that is carefully being avoided here is the battle between the folks for whom Haskell is a language research platform and those who use it to get work done.  It's not entirely inaccurate to say the former group would regard a fragmented module namespace as a good thing, specifically because it discourages people from considering it to be stable....

Brandon, I find that a little hard to believe.  If the issues are similar to other systems and languages, then  I think it is more likely that no one has volunteered to work on it.  You volunteering to help?
