[ newForeignPtr / addForeignPtrFinalizer argument order ] This is the last outstanding issue. Shall we swap? I am torn. The swapped argument order seems more appropriate, but it will break code. Shall we have one more breakage before it's all frozen?
I think that FFI API breakage is effectively a non-issue: Try some non-trivial FFI code which is older than a few months and you'll either abandon portability or use #ifdefs. :-[ So I vote for swapping, too. (Note that GreenCard has to be changed, too, in case we agree on this.) Cheers, S.
