I actually think that we're very close to being in fantastic shape here.
I think that's Haskell zeal speaking. :-) Not that I don't appreciate your zeal (I do), and I'm definitely excited about the stuff you're working on, but we're a long way from having stable, mature, well-designed libraries that are fit for production use in high-level messaging applications. In this niche (and quite a few other networking-related niches), Erlang is the clear winner, at least for the immediate future (in the long-term, the purity of Haskell could lead to some high-performance, robust approaches not possible for Erlang).
