Standard Haskell packaging things. These files are used when profiling the code
which implies that the -devel package exist.
Shouldn't the libHSpcre-light-0.4_p.a appear in the devel package rather than
in the main package?

These are also standard Haskell packaging things. I think the %{common_*}
macros are used in the %{?ghc_lib_package} line which is where the -prof and
-devel subpackages are defined.
I don't see any reference to this on the Haskell packaging guidelines page:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Haskell

These are actually no longer there in the latest cabal2spec templates. I'll
update the spec file to it.
Sounds great.
