Changes related to arithmetic types:
* Renamed macros NUMERIC_FOO to ARITHMETIC_FOO to match C99-speak
* ARITHMETIC_TYPEs now have a Real instance, otherwise they are quite useless.
Note that this differs from the FFI spec, but the spec should very probably
changed in this respect.
* Some changes to fix the wrong assumption that CTime/CClock are integral types,
C99 in fact guarantees only that they are arithmetic types. This has been
accomplished by using
realToInteger = round . realToFrac :: Real a => a -> Integer
instead of fromIntegral for CTime/CClock. I'm not sure if we could do better,
going via Double seems to be overkill, but I couldn't think of a better way.

The lock arrays are too small on Windows, leading to buffer overruns

The problem is that on Windows, we shouldn't use FD_SETSIZE to get the

we now hardwire that in.

Added interface to set/get handler for uncatched exceptions.
The handler is invoked from the GHC.TopHandler.topHandler or
Control.Concurrent.childHandler when an exception is catched.

Put double quotes around the -#include flag, so that command-lines can

Hugs only: use the configure-set variable INLINE_ONLY instead of
`extern inline' (which works for gcc but not C99 compilers).

Excluding 'unfoldTreeM' and 'unfoldForestM' is overkill for nhc98.
A simpler workaround for the type inference bug is just to omit one
type signature from the mutually recursive pair.

Fix the WinME/98/95 double-backslash bug
---------------------------------------
Merge to stable branch, at least
once we are sure it's right
Backslashes should not be escaped in command-line arguments for rawSystem,
on Win32. This only actually causes failures on WinME/98/95, and we can't
test that since we don't have it. But this fix seems right regardless.
There are extensive new comments in libraries/base/System/Cmd.hs which
describe the issues.
