[Haskell-cafe] ANNOUNCE: mathlink-2.0.0.3

[Eugene Kirpichov]

Hi,

I'm a Haskeller that uses Mathematica on a regular basis; it's one of
my favourite tools.
So - thanks for your work, I'll use it whenever applicable.

However, during compilation I get an error that ml.h is not found,
even after I added Mathematica's include dirs to Include-Dirs.
Since that seems to be not a Mathematica's file (it doesn't exist in
my Mathematica directories), I conclude that it might be a file that
is missing from the package. Is that actually so?
