ANN: C->Haskell 0.14.1 "Travelling Lightly"

Version 0.14.1 "Travelling Lightly" of C->Haskell introduces three radical changes: * Death to make! We have got brand new Cabal-based build system. * Brand new C lexer/parser based on Alex and Happy kindly contributed by Duncan Coutts. This reduces the memory consumption when compiling bindings to large C libraries dramatically. * No separately installed marshalling library anymore. Support code is provided in source form. Hence, a single C->Haskell installation can generate bindings for any Haskell system and version. The hitch is that you need to use Cabal 1.0.1 to build the system (not version 1.0 included with GHC 6.4, as this misses a crucial feature). Happy Hacking! Manuel PS to GHC HQ: Can we please have the latest Cabal in GHC 6.4.1?
