Description
Given that the default Gatekeeper (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gatekeeper_(OS_X)) setting for 10.8 is to only allow Mac App Store and Developer ID signed applications / packages, the Haskell Platform installer is a lot less user-friendly.
When double-clicking, users are presented with the dialog in the attached screenshot. Clicking "OK" does NOT launch the package. (By right-clicking and selecting "Open", users are presented with a slightly different dialog that allows the user to open the package anyway.)

This is reasonably urgent as Mountain Lion's release is imminent (within the next couple of weeks, probably).
