There's also Purescript, which is built for the web but has many of the goodies you'd expect from Haskell.

I tried out Purescript for a project and didn't think it's ready for production... Generic encoding/decoding was painful, the lack of good dependency management was painful, too many things were either missing or immature. I hope in a year or two the story will be better.
PureScript is a rapidly moving target. When did you try?
Eh, I don't know PureScript but IMO you just added another reason why it isn't production ready.

Unless they are really really good at keeping backwards compability in both language and build tools.

Nope, they break things all the time. Or at least, they did one major break earlier this year. "Production ready" is different from "should I use this ever at all though."

Doesn't really answer the question I posed though.
