yes. use withCString instead

if this functions fills s1 and s2, use alloca and peekCString
one example of (rather generic) wrapper for C functions that accepts
string (c_method) and returns string (c_out_method):
generalDoWithMethod mType c_action method = do
withCString method $ \c_method -> do
allocaBytes aMAX_METHOD_STRLEN $ \c_out_method -> do
ret <- c_action c_method c_out_method
case ret of
0 -> peekCString c_out_method
_ -> fail$ "Unsupported "++mType++" method or error in parameters: "++method
