Hi Nicolas,
I apologize if you didn't get the notice I sent last week on the update.
Right now I am endlessly battling windows, and while I actually DO
have a dynamic GHC working for windows with the DLL split (#5987,) it
is segfaulting in the stage2 compiler when compiling the 'time'
library, and I am still looking into it for the past day or so. This
is really my biggest hold up in pushing some needed fixes (I'll post
some details out here on the list soon, so others can help.)
I'm working this weekend to try and get a lot of it sorted out and
post an update, but I will unfortunately be gone part of Saturday.
