C->Haskell 0.14.5 improves pointer hooks:
* Proper handling of struct/unions, courtesy of Jelmer Vernooij
* The `nocode' directive enables pointer hooks that generate no code,
which is useful when a binding wants to use some definitions from
another binding that was not generate with C->Haskell.
Full details appended.
Happy Hacking!

* Pointer hooks translate raw types
- This fixes a long standing bug that over which I only stumbled by accident.
When we translate a C type being the target if a pointer hook into a Haskell
type, we must disregard the pointer hook alias map. The problem occured as
the `extractCompType' function is used in two different kind of contexts:
(a) when handling pointer hooks and (b) when translating function signatures
for foreign import declarations. The function must behave slightly
differently in both contexts, but didn't do that so far.

* Only match in `checkForOneCUName' if there are no indirections
Without this patch, the following code:
#c
struct foostruct { char x; };
void bar2(struct foostruct **a);
#endc
{#pointer *foostruct as Foo newtype#}
test2 = {#call bar2#}
would give
foreign import ccall safe "test-pp.h bar2"
bar2 :: ((Foo) -> (IO ()))
with this patch, it generates:
foreign import ccall safe "test-pp.h bar2"
bar2 :: ((Ptr (Foo)) -> (IO ()))
