I was trying to get gtk2hs into darwinports. The build was going fine until it errored out with this failure:

Syntax error! The symbol `__asm' does not fit here.

I know that the gtk2hs guys built a new parser/lexer, and it appears indeed to be a parse error. C
Yes, neither the old nor the new C lexers understand the __asm symbol.
This is something we obviously need to fix. I'll look into the gcc __asm feature as soon as I have a free moment. Any fix will appear in Gtk2Hs 0.9.8.1 and patches will be sent to the mainline c2hs.
Thanks, Duncan. Manuel
