Hi,
The Foreign Function Interface (FFI) is your friend for these tasks:
http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~chak/haskell/ffi/
On the haskell.org web page, under "libraries and tools" there are
links to
a number of tools to help you connect your C & haskell programs.
The GreenCard and c->haskell tools seem to be used by a number
of people.
Alastair Reid's Guide to Haskell's Foreign Function Interface,
http://www.reid-consulting-uk.ltd.uk/docs/ffi.html
is a good place to start. It has some comparison of the various tools.
Best Wishes,
Greg
