Changes (by simonmar):

  * milestone:  6.8.3 => 6.10 branch

Comment:

 Bumping this to 6.10.  The stdcall part will be fixed by libffi, which I
 hope to start using for GHCi in 6.10, and we'll make sure the dllexport
 bit is fixed then too.  In the meantime, the workaround is to compile the
 offending source file rather than interpret it.
