I think that C++ was a lot worse, even the accepted features (e.g. templates) didn't work the same with all compilers. All non-trivial code came with a list of supported compilers.
True. If we had more Haskell implementations, we might be in the same boat.
Our situation is much simpler. Code is either written for Haskell 98, or for "Glasgow extensions".
Almost. There's Haskell 98, H98 plus common extensions (the baseline for the hierarchical libraries), a larger language accepted by both GHC and Hugs, and then there's GHC.
