com library

[Michael Vorin]

I take it that by not including the com library in the december release of 
hugs there is a tacit acknowledgement that it dosn't work with it ?

I was trying to get HaskellDB to work with the Feb01 release of hugs then 
the dec01 release. In either case I could not get it to work with the com 
library released with Feb01 release.

I also tried the com library released with HaskellDirect - together with 
hugs Feb01, hugs Dec01 - still no luck

- error was memory reference error

Digging back into the past, the activeX library released with HaskellScript 
(a long time ago) together with either Hugs Feb01 or Hugs Dec01 worked.

tried hugs Nov 99 with com library from Haskell direct - worked
tried hugs Nov 99 with com library from Hugs Feb01 - worked

Test
----
The test that was run was to load the HaskellDB sample and run
test showNames names

Conclusion
----------
It appears there is a problem in the interaction of Hugs Dec 01 and the com 
library - this problem seems to have been introduced with hugs Feb01
