For haskell and prolog, there's also ghc and gprolog, respectively. As for diagramming, there's Dia and OpenOffice Draw, however, I don't think they stack up to the proprietary equivalents.
PSpice - couldn't find a better alternative, ended up in a windows virtual environment. Xilinx ISE - has a linux native (looks very ugly and is about 5 gigs). Matlab also has a Linux alternative, btw : http://www.mathworks.com/products/matlab/requirements.html however, I can't confirm, as I don't use it yet. As for Polyray, well, it's based on PovRay which has a linux native. http://www.povray.org/ One thing, though, it's certainly illegal to be putting proprietary software on a disk without a license of any kind.
