Something that has irked me in the past about System.Process is the inability 
to obtain an OS system handle from the haskell Process handle. Such a facility 
would greatly enhance the interoperabity of c and haskell libraries.

Provision is made (although not standardised) to obtain OS specific handles 
from haskell File Handles which is very useful. The same should be provided for 
Haskell Process handles. The main barrier to such a facility is the variability 
between OS representations of such a type (aka windows Handles, unix PID).

comments anyone.
