HDirect and GHC-6.6

[Krasimir Angelov]

Some time ago I even started to design my own comlib. It is quite
different from HDirect's comlib but is more closer in spirit to
Haskell's FFI lib. It isn't completed yet but if someone is interested
in I would upload it in darcs next week. It is living in Foreign.COM
namespace.

Cheers,
   Krasimir
