Shouldn't the libHSpcre-light-0.4_p.a appear in the devel package rather than
in the main package?
The _p is the profiling library. The -devel library does not have it.

I don't see any reference to this on the Haskell packaging guidelines page:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Haskell
If you look at the spec files generated from cabal2spec, they're used there.
Maybe the wiki needs some updating.
