The following types are instances of Storable:


    Bool, Char, Int, Word, Ptr a, FunPtr a, StablePtr a, Float, Double,
    Word8, Word 16, Word32, Word64, Int8, Int16, Int32, Int64, Addr

Note that the FFI "looks through" newtypes, so e.g. everything from CType=
s
is an instance of Storable, too. Did you have a look at the FFI draft

especially sec. 5.7? If yes, we should clarify this a bit...

Hope that helps,
    S.
