Well I tried this statement
ghc --mk-dll -fglasgow-exts -fffi -I. --make ExternLib.hs

It only compiled the object file, creating ExternLib.o, but it did not
create the stub file or attempt to link in the dependent packages.  I then
went back to this,

ghc --mk-dll -fglasgow-exts -fffi -o netsim.dll ExternLib.o ExternLib_stub.o
dllNet.o src1.o src1_stub.o src2.o -package parsec -optl-lmatrixstack
-optl-L"."

This removed the undefined references to the parsec package, however I still
can't get it to link to the matrixstack.lib and matrixstack.dll. 
matrixstack.lib was created using dlltool and does link just fine if linking
the sources into a stand alone executable instead of a .dll.  I did try to
include matrixstack.lib on the command line directly as well but that ended
up with the same problem.

Is it possible to just compile everything into C?  I'd need to link to the
haskell runtime libraries somehow.
