It probably wouldn't be hard to write a reasonably general wrapper for this, but it's a bit late now so I'll leave that as an exercise :-)
Sigh. I tried to set this up (using a little external C routine to do the API grunt work) and it doesn't seem to work as I expect. Maybe the C/GHC runtimes do something more complex than just using the API standard handles, maybe I coded something wrong. In theory, this should work. In practice, Haskell may benefit from an equivalent of the C freopen() function (from stdio), which deals correctly with the internals of handles... Paul.
