Hi Joachim,
Besides Frege, Haskell does indeed run on the JVM now via GHCVM [1] - it
was my HSoC project. I'll be doing a release in a couple days once I get a
couple issues sorted out and the installation is streamlined. I'm currently
working with Cary Robbins on getting the HaskForce Intellij Plugin working
for GHCVM. If all goes well, GHCVM 0.0.1 will ship with ghcvm, ghcvm-pkg,
cabalvm (a fork of cabal-install 1.22.9.0/Cabal 1.22.8.0 that supports
GHCVM), a working Intellij plugin, and will support all of GHC 7.10.3
extensions other than Template Haskell + interoperation with Java
libraries. You can join us on Gitter for live updates [2].

Regardless: It will only help third party code written in Haskell. Much as I like most userland software to be written in Haskell it won't help e.g. IntelliJ IDEA one whit.
Unless Haskell runs on the JVM. Do you know whether Frege (https://github.com/Frege) is a viable option for that? At least at the surface, it qualifies, but I don't know whether the details (performance, Java library interoperability, stability, availability of Haskell language extensions) work out well enough for that.
