No problem.

Still, 'enum define' hooks are nice add-on and it enhances c2hs
functionality.

/me would like to see c2hs as ffi-tool-of-choice for Haskell users.

Atm, however, most of pkgs use hsc2hs...it looks having some more
examples/docs of using c2hs would be great - like having example from
the Real World Haskell book (FFI chapter) done in c2hs or something...

Right. He told me it's on todo list, but in the meantime I'll use your
branch.

Private email or sending here?
