  Yes. I tried it again this morning, and I've got the same
  error -- same unknown symbol, &c.

  I don't have trouble with most Haskell programs on my Mac, so
  I assume it's the way I'm connecting to C that is the problem.
  I've pasted in the relevant code below my signature -- it
  seems plain enough to me, but I've not done much with foreign
  declarations.

  The `Ptr Char` declarations, for example, point to things
  which are actually C ints -- they are all valid Unicode code
  points, so I figure there's no harm done.
