I think that the problem was caused by the postinst failing in the old 
package.  ghc-pkg was trying to register it against a version of MissingH 
that you didn't have, so postinst failed.  prerm then failed because the 
package wasn't registered.

I guess we could have a meta-discussion on the Haskell list about ignoring 
ghc-pkg errors in prerm.  To date I don't think anybody is doing it.

But this problem should be confined to sid, and then to library transitions.

What are your thoughts?
