CLDouble is nothing like a long double
This affects all versions of GHC. Why does the type exist when it is just a synonym for CDouble? Either it should actually become a `long double' as the documentation says or it should just not exist. From Foreign/C/Types.hs:
-- HACK: Currently no long double in the FFI, so we simply re-use double
-- | Haskell type representing the C @long double@ type.
