Summary: in hdirect stdcall not supported on PPC Mac OS X 10.3

Initial Comment:
I'm building CVS HEAD from 2005-10-05 with 6.4.1.

I get the error in the attached log.

I'm not in a hurry, but in a couple of months one of my
projects will be to the point that I would like to call
some Haskell code from another project written in C. 
If there's anything I can  do to help with getting
hdirect supported on

Mac PowerBook G4
Mac OS X 10.3.9 "panther"

Please let me know.  (I probably will upgrade to 10.4
"Tiger" in the near future.)

It would be nice if the build could fail safely (ie,
not produce the hdirect library, but not stop the rest
of the fptools build).  There doesn't seem to be a way
to disable the feature via configure.
