I too have this feeling, from time to time.
So do I, because I haven't had the time to learn what I need to learn in order to read the code smoothly. I find that when I do work out the meaning, most often the style reflects conciseness or expressiveness, not obfuscatory tricks that the language allows.
Since someone is starting to write the Haskell coding style, I really suggest him to take this "problem" into strong consideration.
Rule One of the Haskell Coding Style Handbook: learn Haskell first, then worry about style. After all, nobody in her right mind would tackle a French style manual without learning French first. Although I suppose one could argue that learning Haskell in fact involves learning various styles. ;) -gregg
