ANN: C->Haskell 0.8.1
I am pleased to announce the availability of version 0.8.1 of the interface generator C->Haskell. It works with the current stable release series 4.08.x of GHC as well as the current development series 4.11. For both versions of GHC, it supports the *same* FFI library that GHC natively only supports in the development version 4.11 and which constitutes the result of the work of the FFI Task Force over the last couple of months. The interface specification of the library is online available at http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~chak/haskell/c2hs/docu/c2hs-4.html For more information on C->Haskell and for downloading, see http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~chak/haskell/c2hs/ The main feature in this release is the new FFI library. It should allow users of the GHC stable series to use the new FFI library interface, which we hope to keep stable from now on. An update of the C->Haskell tool proper is being worked at.

Wow!
A problem: c2hs/gen/CInfo.lhs imports class Storable from module
C2HSConfig, which does not export it.
Also, the compilation fails (on ghc-4.11):
/usr/local/bin/ghc -c -syslib lang -syslib posix -O -recomp
-fno-warn-incomplete-patterns -i. -fglasgow-exts C2HSMarsh.hs
C2HSMarsh.hs:43:
Bad interface file: ./Ptr.hi
does not exist
and similarly for other files. This is because there exists Ptr.hs
in this directory - but it should not be taken from there, because
the right version is in ghc's own libraries.
I don't know how to solve such problem in general, except by splitting
modules into many directories playing with -i options (that's why
QForeign had to use different module names for modules it brings
which may or may not come with the compiler, except some modules not
present in nhc98 which are handled by -i options).

This is very strange, because I have tested this and it worked for me. In fact, if you look at the Makefile in the c2hs/lib/ directory, then you will see that the `depend' target moves these troublesome files into a subdirectory before compilation (called ghc411hackdir). Is it possible that you used the same build tree to compile with 4.08 first and then re-compile with 4.11? This won't work, because of the hack mentioned above. In fact, I think, this is a bug in ghc 4.11 - I have filled it as bug #131631 in the bug tracker.
