Hmmm, in Hugs I decided to reject any unsupported calling convention
on the assumption that silently using the wrong one was worse than
loudly objecting.

GHC's approach feels wrong but it's obviously very convenient and I
don't know of any Unix platform where treating stdcall as ccall would
actually hurt you.

What's your preference, Sven (putting aside, if you can, the fact that
you'd have to change all your code again if things were 'fixed')?
