[C2hs] Possible breaking changes to C2HS

Dear All,

The next release of C2HS (version 0.26.1) will have some changes that could
conceivably cause problems in some rare cases.  To summarise: C2HS will now
manage imports of Haskell library modules that it needs for marshalling
functions itself, rather than relying on the user writing "import
Foreign.C.Types" everywhere...

You can read about the details of the changes and the potential problems
here:

https://github.com/haskell/c2hs/blob/master/import-handling.md

I'm not going to release this to Hackage for a couple of weeks to allow
people to try the new version in advance, in case there are problems.  Let
me know if you do find any problems so that I can fix them before releasing
this.

Cheers,

Ian.
