[HOpenGL] I now know why there's no binding to FTGL nor to GLTT

The current FFI doesn't support C++, nevertheless there is a slightly
tedious, but doable way around this: Write a thin wrapper with C linkage
around the C++ stuff, using your favourite C++ compiler, e.g.

   extern "C" double foo(int x) { ... }

is callable via the normal

   foreign import ccall foo :: CDouble -> CInt

(add "unsafe" or IO, depending on the nature of foo).
