when pugs is compiled, Haskell not required at all. I mean "pugs" as executable, both Win32 and Linux, where I had chances to try, do not depend on Haskell.

However I agree wholeheartedly with an opinion that Autrijus' de-marche on writing Perl6 on Haskell proves that HASKELL is damn cool. It is much harder than perl to understand, but it is infinitely powerfull
(Yes, Haskell works with infinite data structures easily, or better said lazily:) :))

addition BTW I can provide you with current PUGS binaries for Win32 or Linux, It is 4+Mb executable.
