I'd like to discuss that in Phabricator to keep the discussion centralized. Could you add a comment?

My original patch https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/attachment/ticket/10777/cabal-rsp.patch contains 'normslash' function. It seems, Michael have overlooked this. GNU tools wait response files containing forward slashes in paths.

Hmm no that doesn't seem familiar to me. It looks like some Windows style paths are being passed around but don't know why..

Are you running the non-emulating shells? E.g. The MinGW-w64 Win64 Shell bat?

That worked, and got me much farther. If you don't mind one more newb question, I'm now seeing the following. Any thoughts?

        Hi Michael,

        Those instructions are for the GHC head. For 7.10 and earlier
        this page
        https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/GettingTheSources/Legacy
        should have been updated but it seems it never was..

        To get the tarballs on that version do
        git clone git://git.haskell.org/ghc-tarballs.git
        <http://git.haskell.org/ghc-tarballs.git>

        I will update the legacy page later.

        Regards,
        Tamar

        Subject: Building on Windows

        I'm trying to test a patch I wrote for Windows builds[1]. I'm
        following the preparation guide[2], but my configure step
        fails[3] with config.log contents[4]. Note that I'm building
        on the ghc-7.10 branch, not master. Is it possible that this
        would contribute to the unrecognized
        --enable-tarballs-autodownload option, and/or the inability to
        compile C files?
