* Vincent Hanquez:
Native means the implementation is in haskell, and the library is not using another implementation (in another language) to do the work: either through FFI as a binding, or as a wrapper to an external program.
I can see how this terminology makes sense, but it's the opposite of the usage in Java (where "native" == "unmanaged code called via JNI").
