OK. C2Hs wants to solve problem of writing bindings for C libraries by
avoiding to learn some new IDL and provide all the tools in hosted
langauge (Haskell) by offering some hooks to tailor higher-level API for
bindings taking advantage of hosted language (e.g. GC instead of doing
manual memory allocation).

I also believe that just wrapping C library and using C API is not
enough if we want to take advantage of e.g. SafeD's features.
