However for ghc:
foreign import ccall unsafe "foo.h foo" foo :: IO ()
does not escape because ghc does not track which .h file should be #included later. It's not that it couldn't escape according to the FFI spec but that ghc currently does not do cross-module inlining for such declarations. That's what I've been told and it's the behaviour I've observed, except for the case I noted.
Ah yes, I remember that now.
