I think this will be the best way forward:

Haskell team introduces new source package haskell-pandoc.

When available, I can build package pandoc depending on it.

I really don't like breaking upstream project pandoc into two Debian
source packages like that, but I don't have the energy at the moment to
try fix dh-haskell (which I suspect will be similar work as I am doing
to dh-cargo currently).
