GHC 5.04 implements the proposed standard FFI.  Hugs is
currently being brought in line by Alastair Reid and nhc98
has it on its todo list.  This is as close to a standard as
you'll get at the moment.

For anything OpenGL related, I would recommend to take
exactly the same route as Sven has done.  Consistency is
good!
