So we're reversing the previous decision to have people use c2hs --copy-library rather than installing a library which would then require people to have c2hs installed to be able to use a package that used the C2HS module. It's a bi of a shame to have a dep on c2hs for such a short and simple module. If the --copy-library is too annoying for people to use, perhaps we should make c2hs just emit the functions into the module when they are needed. Duncan

Urgh. My bad. I didn't properly pay attention. I'll revert that. Cheers, Manuel
