  Log:
  Provide hand-optimised versions of all the functions herein, protected
  by #ifdef __GLASGOW_HASKELL__.
  
  In a quick test, withCString is at least 5 times faster than before.
  
  This isn't really the right way to do it: we should get deforestation
  working between the various component functions and let GHC do its
  stuff, but I couldn't quite get that to work.
