  Log:
  Tweaked install to install HsFFI.h in $prefix/share/hugs/include
  As a result you have to 'make install' before testing the code.
  
  Note: Use of the install directory $prefix/share/hugs isn't really
  appropriate since HsFFI.h is machine dependent and any libraries
  containing ffi code will be machine dependent too.
  
  Tweaked ffi code to compile the code it generates.  (As before, the
  code needs autoconfed.  It currently uses cc -shared and it assumes
  directory separators of "/".)
  
  Note: There's now an awful lot of code scattered around Hugs for
  manipulating strings: parsing them, finding substrings (notable
  equivalents of gnumake's basename, notdir, dir, etc.).  A very
  worthwhile task would be to create a proper library of string
  manipulation code (taking care of all the overflow issues properly,
  etc.) and clean up all the cruft that has accumulated.
  
  A suitable test sequence for the ffi looks like this:
  
    cd unix
    ./configure --prefix=$HOME/tmp
    make install
    cc -I. ../lib/exts/Storable_aux.c -c -o ../lib/exts/Storable_aux.o
    $HOME/tmp/bin/hugs +G test.hs < /dev/null
    $HOME/tmp/bin/hugs test.hs
    stty sane
  
  ToDo: Add some file modification time code to build the .{c,so} files
  only if needed.  Hmmm, but how do we define 'needed'?  The right thing
  to do is a dependency analysis from this module.
