Good. Let me know where it is when you track it down.

The link you pointed me too doesn't seem to address my question directly. Also, it only talks about C.

If I want to call Haskell (and I do, perhaps) from another garbage-collected language (Eiffel, in particular) using C as the mutually understood language, am I not going to run into big problems?

No, you can manage objects via e.g. ForeignPtr's. The community has a whole has done bridges between Haskell and pretty much anything you care to name, via the C FFI. Just depends on how well you understand the memory management models of both players. -- Don
