Calling foreign functions that return values is problematic for the
compiler -- I haven't invested enough time to come up with a good
solution.
The work around is to assign the result to an external variable. The
drawback is the result will not be available until the rule executing
the action has completed.
results <- bool' "result" -- Global, external variable to capture result.
action (\ [a, b, c] -> printf "result = function(%s, %s %s)" a b c) [a, b, c]
