Gentoo, Arch, Fedora and Debian (I think Testing).
My experience is that OpenSuSE is not quite up-to-date, so I'd recommend going with Ubuntu if you can make the choice now. They seem to have the 2011 platform,
For non-Haskell concerns, it seems Ubuntu is nice, since it's built on Debian, but is maybe a little more user-friendly (in community and software choices). I found Gentoo not so user-friendly ... I am not one to enjoy spending time installing operating systems, or building things from source, even if they run faster [wrt. AMD vs. Intel gcc build options] :).
