I think that this should be fixed with the latest version of the driver
(0.6.2). I was incorrectly squirreling away pointers that I'd acquired using
"with" or "withCString". This worked -- sometimes. :)

Hello,
One major thing I haven't seen explicitly mentioned yet in this thread
is tail recursion. You have to write tail recursively in OCaml (or any
strict language) or you will blow the stack. While tail recursion is
often wrong (in terms of efficiency) in Haskell, it is always right in
OCaml.

Hi Brent,
I'm sorry to hear that the non-injectivity issue bit you. It's bitten me

your transformation on the original program amounts to replacing all

Hi,
Strangely enough, I did the opposit some time ago. Ocaml is way simpler than
haskell, in fact. There is no referential transparency, no laziness (though it
can be simulated with "fun ()->x", but the type of a lazy expression is not the
same as the reduced expressions), no parallelism (the G

What does "ghc-pkg check" say? You probably have inconsistent deps; as
