  Marking it unsafe is done by putting "unsafe" in the foreign
  import declaration. Even if it turns out not to fix the
  problem, it reduces the overhead of foreign calls (and is safe
  as long as they aren't going to call back into Haskell).

  Because your on Windows, you want to use "stdcall", as
  mentioned by Daniel Fischer. Thus the full declaration is:

    foreign import stdcall unsafe "rs232.h closecport" closecport :: IO ()

  Let us know if this helps.

  I encourage you to look into Cabal soon :)
