I'm currently trying to build c2hs (v 0.16.4) from the cabal source
package from HackageDB on a Win64 system.

eason: File exists
cabal.exe: Error: some packages failed to install:
c2hs-0.16.4 failed during the final install step. The exception was:
ExitFailure 1
== SETUP CONFIG - CONCERNING STRIP ==
("strip", ConfiguredProgram {programId = "strip", programVersion =
Nothing, programDefaultArgs = [], programOverrideArgs = [],
programLocation = FoundOnSystem {locationPath =

I hope I included enough information to make it possible to solve this
bug. Comment if you need anything.
Thanks.
