Yo Jake,
Yeah, what Max said. Sigh, I've done this (updated OH to use Max's static lib support, fixed a bunch of bugs, and other things) an have been promising to clean it up enough to release for quite some time. The yucky bit is that I manually converted it to strip out the Template Haskell usage which both makes it much uglier and not nearly as nice to use. But it works, and that's something : ), so I'll get going.

I think we could design something even nicer with Type Families sometime that didn't require TH.

Cheers
Luke

Hello!

I think ObjectiveHaskell is a more practical choice today than HOC.

ObjectiveHaskell could be cleaned up to use the new GHC 7.8 features, which will simplify the build process.

Try it out.
