Translating Haskell to C for use on iPhone

I've written a Haskell library I would like to include in an iPhone app. It makes heavy use of Haskell's functional abilities, currying, etc. and rewriting in Objective-C would be tough.

Is it possible to automatically translate Haskell to C? or dig out an intermediate C representation from one of the compilers?

Apple's developer agreement forbids statically linking one of the lightweight Haskell interpreters, not that I'm keen on that solution.

Have a look at the ghc-ios project:

http://repetae.net/computer/jhc/ compiles to fairly standard C. It might be possible to use it.
