Haskell Setup.lhs

[Rick R <ri...@gmail.com>]

Just a quick note:  The Apache license tacked into Setup.lhs seems to break
it.
Not sure if literate haskell has a problem with #'s or what, but removing it
allowed me to runhaskell it.

Hey. I'm not familiar with Thrift development, but I do know some Haskell,
and those #'s are indeed wrong. Long (multiline) comments in haskell are
done with {- -} (open-accolade dash, dash close-accolade). Until-end-of-line
comments (which is presumably what # was supposed to do) is with -- (two
dashes).

stop)
